Information I've been able to gather so far about each will be coming in a series of posts.
Starting with PI 197405
Country of Origin: Ethiopia
Species: Originally thought to be a fructescense, it was later reclassified as a Chinense.
(forum software didn't like the pictures)
Guessing the pod is the one in the bottom left, and the other peppers are included for scale.
Next up: PI 273425 aka Bird Chili a Tepin native to Mexico donated by a fellow in georgia.
PI 562384 is of course the Red Savina habanero. Which was once classified as being an "Annum". Which is interesting. Someone didn't have their thinking cap on that day. Any way.
PI 585278 is an ecudorian Chinense with no name. It looks like a red habanero to me, but we will give it a shot. It is native to the Galapagose Islands. Here is the photo:
PI 360729 is one I may not be able to get due to availability issues. There are apparently not that many seeds for it in existance. I suspect this one will not be included. This one was originally listed as a fructesence, re-classified as a chinense and is now classified as a fructescense once more. WIll we get a chance to decide for ourself? I hope so. Here is the fruit - which looks tabasco esque to me.
PI 355392 another ecuadorian pepper. A habanero type pepper that is somewhat elongated like a bhut. Restricted availability once more. But one can hope.
PI 439376
Restricted availibilty. From Ecuador. Baccatum var pendulum.
PI 593606
Restricted. I hadn't noticed when I was making my request how many of these were restricted. Hopefully they don't just deny the whole request because of the availibility issue.
Baccatum type.
PI 631141 - this pepper has been identified as both annum and fructescense.
NOT RESTRICTED (whoop whoop). It is called "Diente de Perro" which translates to "tooth the dog" or Dogtooth.
PI 631141 - a Chiltepin from Ecuador.
PI 593933 - listed as both chinense and annum. Restricted
PI 593931 - Annum grown next to Pubescense. They suspect it could be some sort of hybrid (didn't think these two crossed?) white seeds.
PI 439507 - restricted. Chinense.
PI 593928 - chinense. heart shaped fruit!
PI593925 - Chinense. But looks like a cayenne.
PI593924 - fructescense from ecuador.
PI 593920 - fructescense from ecuador. No pictures, but they called it in the description an ecuadorian tabasco... Sounds interesting.
PI 659106 - Chacosense from Germany. Supposed to have a pale yellow flower.
PI 639651 - paraguayan chacoense - supposedly used as a medicine by the indigenous people the tova. Tiny round upright fruit. purple/green fruit ripening to orangish red.

That's a nice list you have there. How many plants are you trying to end up with?
I ask because I've been thinking about going to a seminary on the coast for a bit. A lot of my friends go to the baptist theological seminary down in New Orleans.
Trying to end up with 4 - going to try to graft as many plants together as I can. If I end up with a few more, I have a cousin south of Raleigh here in NC, that can babysit them for me till I take them back to Fl.
NOBTS is a good school from what I hear, but they have kind of an awkward approach to the history of our denomination. The would argue we are all basically anabaptists. While the anabaptists did have an influence on our denomination - especially those who were arminian to start with, we were equally influenced by the puritans through the particular baptists. Some at NOBTS teach that the baptists have always existed across time even when there are no like faith groups recorded. Some heretical groups end up being co-opted into the baptist tradition even when they have major issues with the trinity and other rather important doctrines. They are a bit more arminian than say southern, or southeastern. But my pastor loved his time there and wants me to attend there for my PhD... So we shall see

. If you can get into SEBTS I felt like they are the best of the 6 at the present moment. Not fully calvinist, not fully arminian, not fully molinist, but fully geared towards missions. Which is where my passions lie. Most of my professors are being written about, and published as experts in their field. Published in commentaries, history texts, etc etc etc... NOBTS isn't a bad school by any stretch. But SEBTS is better in my view (obviously or I wouldn't be giving them all my money haha).
