Do you need help identifying a 🌶?
Is your plant suffering from an unknown issue? 🤧
Then ask in Identification and Diagnosis.

would you know the name of this pepper plant?
I'm not sure. Looks like a Numex Twilight or Bolivian rainbow. Maybe someone here recognizes it..
So, sorry to threadjack but... Do any of these taste acceptably good?
What do you guys do/cook/brew with your ornamentals?

Most ornamental peppers are bred for looks, not flavor, but the Black Pearl isn't bad if you want to work at removing the seeds first from the small pods. It had a sharp quickly fading bite that has a sweet flavor.
definetely for looks. This one is awesome too.I've grown lots of "ornamentals" over the years and personally I can't say I really liked any for the flavor, including the black pearl.
The purira has a fairly good flavor and quite attractive but not really bred or classified as an ornamental

Crap... Now I have to buy more seeds. Lol...For purely ornamental my favorite has always been the chinese 5 color

That is pretty much what I've been looking for to give to my Mama for the holidays.
I have Numex Twilight growing now. But I'm gonna have to get my hands on some of those..
Thanks for sharing the pics. Awesome!!!!!
I don't know the name of it.
When it's covered with yellow pods you can see it from a mile away.
I got it in a trade a couple years ago.
I have the plant outside now getting ready to bud.
I probably have seeds for it too.
Pretty sure I do,somewhere in one of my stashes.

Hmm. Maybe a trade? I only have 3 types of seeds now. If your interested, and if you can find the seeds I have Numex Twilight, peter peppers and explosive ember. Heck I can send a you seeds no matter if you find them.
Just let me know one way or the other. You probably have everything I have...
