Chinese 5-color?
The purple is a reaction to the sun. The should ripen to red or so...
I have a couple of Chinese 5-colors that are starting to bear fruit. They start as a cream color then turn purple pretty quickly. I understand they then go through the other colors as they start to ripen. The peppers on mine are all purple right now, except the couple that are brand new. Those couple are cream color.
thats cool man if they are 5 colors i been wanting to get my hands on a plant & what ur sayn proly mine is one lol.....
mine go from unripe green to purple but havent changed ima wait a lil while more to see what happens....do u think they are 5 colors?
I don't know but I love purple peppers wanna trade some seeds?![]()
Here is one of my Chinese 5-color plants. Just got pods a little over 2 weeks ago. Started cream then turned purple within a couple of days. Still waiting for them to go into yellow/orange/red.

I think they are chinese five color OR Bolivian rainbow peppers. They will change colors as they ripen, regardless.
But mine go from green to purpleee, & I was hearing they go from green to white & changing more colors..but mine jst goto green to purple so not sure what it really is.
Mine have stayed purple for a few weeks. The first two pods are starting to lighten. I don't know what color they are going to become next.
Here are some Explosive Embers they start purple and change to 3-5 different colors, I've scene cream, red, purple, light purple, orange, and yellow.![]()
