We'll see if the saving seeds from a pod with characteristics you like really works. It didn't for me two years ago when I found a perfect representation of a Chocolate Fatalii. I grew it this year and the pods were a basic chcolate habanero. Oh well....can't blame me for trying.
Until this year I had never seen chocolate peppers, so I grew some chocolate Habs and I love them. In fact, I have fallen in love with the way all chocolate pods look. They are all so beautiful and that one is a prime specimen. Are all chocolate varieties hotter than their counter parts?
