Is This What a Pollinated Cayanne Pepper (Flower) Looks Like?

[Palmetto]

Hello, recently my Cayanne Pepper plants have produced their second "round" of flowers. The first time they did this all of the flowers were still on and I left for a trip and when came back and I could clearly see the peppers. Now while I am still home they flowered again but now they are (what I think) just starting to produce a second round of peppers? I believe that is what they are doing now, but I never seen them at this stage before. I have only seen flower and obvious pepper. Do these flowers look like they have been pollinated or are they dropping unpolinated? I just want to make sure, I think I can see a little pepper forming. Thank you for reading.

Yes, these peppers have just dropped their skirts so to say, you are in for a next round of pods!

Yes that is what a flower looks like just after it sets fruit. But I can say with 100% certainty that that is not a Cayenne. Cayenne is an Annuum and that plant is clearly a Chinense (multiple flowers per node.) Do you have a pic of the pods that it put out earlier in the season?

I did not get pictures of mine but here is one that I got off of the internet that looks close to what they looked like.

Here is the seed packet they came from.

Its probably a super Annum. They do have multiple flowers per node but they dont have a constricted calyx.

Well, I stand corrected. Apparently that variety has been crossed with a chinense to get the multiple flower per node characteristic for higher yield. So yeah, if your peppers looked like that then all is normal.

Over the past two weeks I have been getting handfuls of these... aaaaaand the good old sideways pictures, but you get the point. The ones in the pictures I just got today (Tropical storm Micheal came through last night).
