I was thinking 7 Pot due to the texture. But then I looked at the calyx. I would agree with JHP^^^^^^^^^on this. I think I've only seen habs with a calyx lacking "flares" or "flanges". It's just circular.

Hmmm....I was kinda thinking 7 Pot too. I sure know it's not supposed to be a Hab.

You will know for sure when you cut it open, hab vs 7 pot, easy to tell

Here's a better picture (top), and next to an actual Red Hab (bottom).

With a 7 Pot , or any superhot, the placenta lines the entire inner wall. In a Habanero, or pretty much all pods except supers, the placenta is the white ribs inside the pod. That's one tell tale  sign.

So.... Habanero?

Looks Hab-ish. Did you taste it? Big difference between a Hab and a 7-Pot.

I haven't (directly) tried one, but a buddy that likes Habs did, and he claims it's hotter. I also suspect that I've of these snuck into the habanero sauce I made yesterday, as it had much more punch and pizzazz than I was expecting.
