Hot Cherries

They look really nice and fresh Trini. I notice you don't let all the chillis turn ripe.

When I leave the green chili to ripe the birds eat them... so I have to pick them green... The birds dont eat the cherries...too hot for them! :onfire:

I dont know... I was trying to find that out... I will post pics and ask who knows the name... I just call it trinihottie... The pod has a rough feel and it has a little tail like Scorpion...
Looks like Australian Lantern.

Birds don't feel the heat.
They can eat Naga like candy.
 
Well the wild birds here aquire a taste for my Green chilis for some strange reason... I have two Venezuelian Parrots and they eat the cherries when I give them ...but not the wild birds... I am glad for that or I will get no crop...
