chinense Nai miris - Sri Lankan chilli ?

[Englander]

Hi Guy's

Anyone know anything about this variety ? I've seen it described as a Scotch bonnet but also as cobra or snake chilli which would suggest a type of Naga ?

I can't find any mention of how many shu or anything about flavour ?

Be interested to find more information

Hi Guy's

My little Nai miris are growing nicely found loads of videos on you tube about them sadly all in Sri Lankan

Funny looking chilies from what I've seen they sort of look like a upside down traditional scotch bonnet !
Anyway very pretty little plants seem to have reddish vains and trunk.

I'd still like to know more about them shu ? Productivity ?

Hi Guy's

My very late sown Nai Miris has a few pod's I still haven't managed to find out much about these...........

I don't know if there a scotch bonnet variety new to Sri Lanka or an old variety grown in Sri Lanka for generations ?

Either way I'm expecting them to ripen to Red

Hi Guy's

The Nai Miris has caught up well and appears to be ripening at both ends at the same time !

Hi Guy's

Interesting shaped pod's very similar to the photo on the website I bought them from

Smells just like my Red Halal shop scotch bonnet but seeds seem concentrated at the top like the Bahamian goat.
