Anybody ever grow

Cajamarca and Takanotsume peppers? Found them on the CPI website and just had to get a pack. I've been able to find some info on the Takanotsume pepper but not much on the Cajamarca.
 
I've grown the poinsettia which is similar or the same as the Takanotsume, and its a nice compact ornamental.
The Cajamarca I believe is a C. chinense from Peru, I think Cmpman grew them
 
Yes, I did grow Cajamarca. It's offically the longest season C. Chinense ever for me...matures like watching grass grow. Pretty color transitioning though as they mature..green to yellow to purple to orange to red. :)

I grow takanotsume. I think they are the most popular pepper in japan. I like the taste of them. The pods grow upright and in clusters. They look and taste like the sort of peppers you get in kung poa chicken.
 
I haven't grown either of those, but the takanotsume sounds a lot like the yatsafusa's I grew last year...upright pods in clusers...about 2.5 inches long...
