This Pepper Was Called Sweet Pepper At An International Market

This pepper has very low heat, and the leaves are broad like c. chinese. The store I bought them from calls them sweet peppers and always sells them green except one I found that was half turning. I'm pretty sure the flowers are white like c. chinese or c. annuum. I say this because the pod shape can be confused with c. baccatum.

Edit: I was thinking it was some kind of aji dulce pepper.

I think the Aji Dulce #1 is a cross between a squash shaped Baccatum variety and some Chinense variety, mostly Chinense genes... Wouldn't surprise me... My Aji Dulce #1's are medium/dark green unripe, dark red when ripe, very long and skinny flower stems... Not too surprised to see some genetic variability in this variety.
 
That wouldn't surprise me.

Dulac, I hope you are saving lots and lots of seed. Seems like it will be in demand. :drooling:
I've been waiting for them to ripen. There should be plenty of seeds. I'm thinking about labeling it Aji Dulce from IM (international market). I think it might be aji dulce #1, but I'm not positive. I don't want to rename an existing variety, but I also don't want to spread around seeds with wrong name. THP people let me know what you think.
 
I have lots of seeds. Just send me a pm for a SASBE. They ripen to red. I'm calling them aji dulce "long stem." They are a sweet very mild capsicum chinese. I couldn't really detect any heat, but I eat a lot of hot peppers.
