Not sure why your not seeing the picture? The yellow ones. It does look alot like a datil doesnt it?? Who out there has a datil and wants to compare them?

what flavor does the pepper have? datils have a distinct unique flavor.

Hey Ryan. Here are a few pods that came from a Datil we had at the PNW chile party last year. These are the only two ripe ones on the plant. I pulled a green one just to get another example of shapes. All the pods are pretty small. I do have a Lemon Drop plant that has longer pods that look closer to yours.

These are the first ripe pods so some of them are the small ones, most of the pods on the plant are this size:

citrusy nothing to special about the pod. Richard you can try them!!

what also might assist in the Id'ing of the pepper is a picture of the plant it came off of, like a picture of the leaves, and how many pods/node. i am not expert this is just the info the experts requested from me onmy pepper id.
