[Pr0digal_son]

Spin-off of the quintessential red tepin. Same prolificacy,habit,and pinchy lip burn you get with the original.

Same flavor?

 

[MeatHead1313]

Looks awesome! Is the cappuccino as hardy as the regular red tepin?

Probably an hybrid but if it keeps the flavor of the landrace i like the wow factor on this one
Great shots as usual!

Not a hybrid. A natural variant of the red. These came from 10 or 15 wild plants in Sonora.

I was curious weather these would grow true. Now I've seen several people grow them and each has grown as advertised. Just might have to grow a couple next year!

I'm a bit skeptical.
People is probably growing tepins from ages and now we suddenly found 'natural variations' more and more often. Chiltepin amarillo, cappuccino tepin and so on...
This does nor detract from your growing and photografic skills, it's beautiful. Sorry for the rant.

No need to apologize,Fab. These plants are far away in the mountains,I am not sure what else would be in that area to cross pollinate them. It is possible though. They look exactly like the reds,no intermediate traits you see with hybrids. It is worth growing for sure.
