I found this pepper at a local park growing wild, there were quite a few plants, some I would believe to be more than one season old. We are at the end of our season here, yet these plants were still flowering and in perfect health.
Slender leaves, with pods that start green and ripen to orange. I would say orange would be the final color as I saw no red pods and the pods I picked were very juicy and detached from the calyx very easily.
Beautiful looking flower.
They are the sweetest tasting peppers I have ever had, with a taste very similar to a Nectarine. However, the aftertaste is very bitter, to the point of being unpleasant. Heat was not detectable at all.
Any ideas?
