Hello, I was trying to figure out what kind of pepper I have and came across this forum. This looks like the place to come for pepper ID.
I got a pepper from a family member in Slovakia, who said he got it from a friend, who got in in Hungry. He told me that it is "madarske feferonky" -- this translates to Hungarian Peppers. I planted it inside in January and it had been making peppers for a couple months now.
The peppers grow to about 1" to 1 1/2". They start green, then turn bright red and some darken, but I am not sure exactly when, possibly after being red. The plant is probably about 2'. Each pepper has many round little seeds inside.
I am not a connoisseur of hot peppers, but these little buggers are hot. A few people that say they like really spicy things described them as stupid hot. A couple others said very hot and suggested they are about the potency of habanero, but I think they might not be quite that hot.
I'd like to know what they are just to be able to see how they compare to other peppers on the scoville scale and be able to tell people the name.
Any help would be great!
Thanks!
