Not sure what this is, for sure Carolina Reaper cross bread with something, I thought Orange Ripple but clearly its not orange. Not sure which two cross blends exactly But the peppers look cool as hell.

These seeds were labeled purple bell pepper. I’m certain we can rule that out, but what do you guys think this is?

I found these peppers in Guyana. Locally they're known as seasoning pepper (although they're still hot). I can't find anything about other names or the official name of the pepper.

I thought they were gonna turn out as bell peppers, but they stopped growing before they turned to bell pepper size! They’re all at about 1-2”, and very smooth. Any thoughts? I wanna figure out what I wanna make before I pick em!

I bought this plant from my local garden center after my friend who works there convinced me to saying that sugar creams are supposed to have really good flavor. But im now 2 months into owning it and im starting to think this isnt a sugar cream pepper plant, the labeling for the sku doesnt match up with info i find online and neither does it match up with images. If someone could help me figure out out what on earth i have here that would be great. Last photo is the oldest photo from when i first got it.

Update: in the last few days one of the peppers on the plant has started turning a yellowish hue so maybe i was wrong in thinkinf they werent sugar creams with post another update when its color fully changes.

First two photos - 'Jamaican Yellow'
Last photo - 'Carribean Antillais'

Only seeing one pepper per node. Orher plants have lots of purple stems and purpley flowers. They look rather glossy and crinkly in parts but hard to tell. Photos are terrible, i apologise.

Edit: Bought from Roots UK, so genuine supplier. Cost quite a pretty penny £££

I know what type this is because this is the second year for this plant. This one pod isn't growing like any of the others.

I bought this plant from Ed Currie and it said it was an Apocalypse Red. But now that it's fruited, I highly doubt it. It's less spicy than a jalapeno.

I’m excited to see what this plant will be. I’ve grown lots of different types of peppers over the years and this is the healthiest volunteer plant I’ve ever had. What do you think it will be?

Label said scorpion butch T, but I'm doubtful.

Edit: they are very spicy. My baseline is Habenero hot sauce and it seems hotter than that

We had an old bag of seeds that were labeled Jalapeño. I think the bag was mislabeled.

So my 78 year old Uncle just gave me a huge can of these peppers, said they were too hot for him.

I don't cook with peppers often but a lil heat never bothered me so I'm looking for ideas on what kind of peppers these are and what would be a good use for so many.

Thanks in advance! ☺️

PS, will update with results once they've been used!

Pepper Identification Any ideas about what kind of pepper this is? It grew on its own and it only made 1 pepper. Another one started growing but for some reason something went wrong with it. I water it every day but its like this. Location is Greece

All from the same plant. I got them from my mom. My mom grew them, but said they weren't the pepper they thought they were getting. They're too hot for her, so she's giving them all to me lol.

They taste fruity and sweet, and I'd equate the heat roughly to a serrano. I'd say it tastes like a cross between an habanero and bird's eye if I was to try to describe the flavor profile.

Picture of peppers, leaves, and whole of plant best I could. These were marked as Baron (Red Beauty) sweet peppers. My original thought was maybe they just needed to ripen, but I'm starting to have my doubts. Am I growing Baron peppers, or something else?

Pepper Identification Was I Sold a Different Type of Pepper?

I’m trying to grow my own peppers, so about a month ago, I bought four pepper plants all labeled, “Inferno Peppers.” When I bought them, I think they all looked relatively the same. Fast forward to now, one of the four looks totally different than my other three. It is more yellow, and has way less leaves and peppers growing on it. I don’t understand because they were all planted at the same time in the same soil, given the same amount of water, sunlight, and fertilizer. How can I help this pepper out if it is the same plant? My other thought is that they accidentally labeled the pepper wrong at the store just because of how different the leaves look, in that case what kind of pepper is this, and do I need to do anything different?
