Holy Tepin flower, Batman!

Maybe this is normal for Tepins and I just never noticed last year, but the first bloom popped on one of my seedlings today and it is kind of huge.

On the topic, what are your favorite varieties for flowers?
 
if my memory serves me correctly, my tepin flowers last year seemed large compared to the tiny chiles that grow from them but to be as large as a quarter im not sure that I ever got any quite that big.

to answer ur question, of the chiles i have grown the red rocoto has pretty cool looking flowers
 
Yeah, I've really liked the few baccatums I've grown. Red Rocoto has some nice ones too. I'll need to try more of the wild chiles at some point, definitely c. rhomb eventually.
 
Sorry to revive an old thread...but finally got a tepin to flower on this end. Not anywhere near the same. Mine are tiny. Maybe 1/4 dime size!
