So, the Murupi Amarela plant I'm growing this year turns out to not be a Murupi Amarela.
I'm quite certain I havent mixed up my labels and I'm also not growing any variety that should look like this, so I could use some help in trying to figure out what it is.
First some images:
Most of the pods look like the ripe one, quite small and with a pear shape, but there are a few pods that look like the unripe one which is bigger and more elongated. There are quite a few pods, so the plant is fairly prolific.
Some of the early leaves were absolutely humongous at about 7" (18cm) in length and perhaps 4" (10cm) wide.
The one I cut open and ate had citrus aroma and citrus flavor. The heat was intense and mostly stayed in the front of the mouth and it was at least in Habanero territory but it could actually be a bit above 500K SHU.
Everything about this plant and the peppers tells me that it's a chinense, but I could be wrong of course.
The peppers do look like Yellow Bullet Habanero, but I did grow that in hydro this year and apart from looks there is nothing else similar between them. Different taste, heat and plant foilage.
So, any ideas what this might be?
