pod-i.d. Can anyone guess what pepper species, flower pod this is?

I have a plant that is beginning to flower. I have no clue what seed it could have been.

It's in my anything goes planter. My first guess, I was thinking it was Chinense.

Now, I think it's got an Annuum looking flower.

I have something similar here but the flowers are a bit different. Also fuzzy. The plant looks like a chinense, but I did not plant chinese there. I hope there are some out there that can help you.
 
It definitely looks chinense to me, based on the flower, pedicels, and the annular constriction apparent in the calyx. Little fuzzies aren't uncommon when you look up close. Kinda cool have a surprise pepper. I wonder what it will be when it comes harvest time.
 
Oh, this is going to be developing very slow because the plant barely gets to see any direct sunlight

Let me direct you to the pepper pod on the plant now :point:

The pod has 3 lobes and tapers towards the bottom.

About the size of Habanero also,
Taste reminds me of a Habanero but it also reminds me of cucumber. The flesh is crispy more like a cucumber skin.

Heat is there, but not overwhelming. I think it's more like a Tabasco or Thai heat level.
I ate the whole thing and I like the taste and heat.
Heat doesn't last long.

The plant is loaded with more new peppers.

What kind do you think they are?

Could these be crossed with Pablano or something!

Do they look habanero-ish?
 
Thanks for guessing.

I searched for pictures and they are all over the place with different shapes.

I think my plant is throwing peppers with only 3 lobes
(More pictures shortly)

They seem to be related to orange hab variety, because it only has yellow in the transition to orange.

Could be a low heat variety, because I ate the whole thing.

Other pods will be checked for heat. Maybe they will have less heat.

Later, More pod pictures...
