So let me start my second post by saying this year the pepper gods smiled upon me, so thanks to friends and my gardening efforts I've been able to sample quite a variety of different peppers. A picture's worth a thousand words so:
crappy camera, bad lighting, etc. so the colors are off a bit (The Fatalli is more yellow than it appears, the White Hab more white, etc.)
In the last row near the end there's an unidentified habanero type I grew. It was sold as Bhut Jolokia but clearly is not, and it doesn't look like any of my other habs. If anyone wants to guess what it is I'll listen. It's pretty hot, and the burn seems to be an afterthought (i.e., not instant heat.. kind of creeps up on you).
From left to right:
1st Row: Chichi Meca, White Habanero, Jamaican Hot Chocolate, Hinkle Hatz, Fatalli, Red Savina, Mustard Habanero, Scotch Bonnet
2nd Row: Trinidad Scorpion, Naga Viper, Malagueata, NuMex Suave Red, Orange Habanero, unidentified Rocoto, Red Cap Mushroom, Bhut Jolokia
3rd Row: Black Pearl, Santa Fe Grande, Carribean Red (not ripe), Thai Hot, NuMex Twilight, Kung Pao, unidentified, Bulgarian Carrot (aka Shipkas), Peter Pepper
So not a bad year for me at all. Hope everyone else is enjoying their peppers.
