Agree - could be a mix. But basically it seems like a purple variety to me (not black, but a very dark purple.) The purples I've grown start small and green, then go to purple, then when ripe turn red. It's a more "true" red than with non-purple varieties. If you cut one open while it's purple, you'll see the insides are actually green. Once they're fully ripe, they are red both inside and out. Have you cut one open and/or eaten one?

Neat looking pepper. Do you cook with it? How does it taste?
 
not yet.. I think I'll wait till ripe first.

dadans, tell us a little more about this pepper please. It's a very attractive plant. Where did you get it?
 
i got it from online seller, it mixed with chenzo seeds.
 
I test to cut and eat one today..
Tastes like CGN21500, but got more heat, my guess is about 50.000-100.000 SHU
