plant Please help Id this plant.

[Linyera]

This plant is the only one of its kind here of the almost 200 plants I have.

The plant grows with lots of branches and growing fast. The flowers are small.
The plant is also velvety hairy.

Looks like it's an annuum, for what that's worth. You can pretty much rule out every other other species because of lacking characteristics that would otherwise show up in your pictures. I suppose that doesn't narrow it down very closely, though.

First thing that popped into the head was shishito, which would fall into what Sir Canedog said was an annuum.

None of the maked seeds I have got was marked as shishito, BUT!! I did raid the spice container of a Bolivian truckdriver of all the dried chillis, so anything is possible.

Looks kinda Thai-ish, or de Arbol, perhaps. It'll be interesting to see what it tastes like. Nice looking plant!

 

[Linyera]

I am also very interrested to find out what it will taste like. At first it flowered a lot but no fuits. Then when it started setting fruit, it just filled up all over. Plenty fruits.

Okay let us know how hot it is when you taste one finally
@Linyera
Did you notice anything odd, about the flower?
Does it have any yellow colors on the petals?

Yes it has a slight yellow tinge, but very light.
What does that tell you?

Among the 5 domesticated/common species, diffused yellow spots on white flowers are found only on baccatum (except uncommonly on frutescens), so if there's yellow on the petals it would suggest it's a baccatum. The flower above doesn't look like a baccatum flower, but sometimes it's hard to tell in photos so it's not a bad thing to confirm. Yellowing/faint yellowing can suggest some other considerations, but those don't seem to otherwise fit your pictures.

I had a good look at the flowers again. If they are clean without pollen and aphids they are actualy white. I took better pictures.

You mentioned these came off a Bolivian truck drivers haul, I went looking for what peppers Bolivia exports to Argentina but its all graphs and pie charts, but I did find 2 chiles, aji Colorado and Criolla Sella plants are exported to Argentina from Bolivia. the second being kinda rare. Both these plants are listed as baccatum.

Not sure if the Sella turns red or not upon ripening, and aji Colorado simply means red Chile as you all know. .

Not sure why I went down that road, but ya never know...

Cheers!

This is Criolla Sella (given to me by a friend this year)

and these are the pods (they turn yellow/light orange)

it's very productive; tastes like grass, and a little of orange fruits (more physalis than tropical). Green ones taste more citrusy.
My friend loves them, but I prefere other baccatum.
In EU seeds are sold by Semillas

My Chili de Arbol came out like this but it had thin leaves

Thanks. This was actualy the driver's personal spices. Probably just what he buys to spice up his food. We started talking about chillies and he gave me his mixed bag of dried chillies. Unfortunately I did not plant the seeds until this spring. Four years later.

Now that I have new glases (Boomer) I took another look at the flowers of this plant. They have grreen/yellowish lines on them as well as on the tips of petals. The photos do not show it so well, but it is not pure white.

The green lines on the flowers is a bit like the green flowers of the Tabasco plants have but much less green.
Could it be a cross of some sort? Unintended.

I tried to do an image search on Yandex

Here's what popped up

Sure, that could suggest a cross of species, though I think there are annuum that have flowers with that shape and with slight greenish coloration so I think that's still possible, too. The green tinging on the flowers does sound like frutescens - or perhaps chinense - though the plan appears to be lacking certain other characteristics of those.. It'll be interesting to hear your thoughts about the fruits once they ripen.

Thanks. I am impatiantly waiting for the first fruits to ripen. The green ones are hot. Very hot.

I think I have the answer to your query.

You acquired Goat's Weed and Chile Rayado from me. Now my suspicion is that what I have been calling Chile Rayado (acquired from PepperLover way back when Judy owned it as Farmer's Market Jalapeño) is actually a cross between the Zapotec Jalapeño and the Goat's Weed. And this beauty is a genetic throwback similar to a Goat's Weed but with characteristics from annuum var annuum.

What a lekker "freak" to have. Enjoy the fruits of your labour compadre!
