pequino peppers

Welcome to THP.
 
thank you all for warm welcome. i love peppers. habaneros are my favorite but exploring other varieties. like heat but like flavor with it.
 
the pequinho (correct spelling) is like a small dessert or salad pepper about a inch long at most, bright red nice and round with a lovely tapered point. very fruity in flavor, tiny..tiny amount of heat but dresses up salads and sweets. can eat them like candy. the plant is pretty and quite prolific. i think it comes from south america, peru? not sure. i do enjoy growing it.
 
hello :hi:
 
 
your description sounds like the biquinho pepper ?
