Interesting

I'd not have guessed that, but I just now went out and checked some of the flowers on my chillie bush and yes the flowers are the same. Pointed petals of almost the similar colour (mine are much whiter though) and the centre bit purple.

The flowers on my chillie bush are really really small, you flower looks much bigger in the photo.

Well done Michael

Please post a pic of your flowers Terpe... We can learn together as a group as to what you are growing!!

I have about 5 varieties growing as of now...(including the national popper...L:abuyo)

BTW.. Pepper flowers look really similar..BUT there are many small differences that can give so many different clues to what type of Pepper they are.. This particular type is an Annum.. There are other types,but we can learn as we go!

I'll give it go tomorrow if the flowers are still there
If not just wait a few days and more will come. I'm having a bumper year so far

Hot peppers are quite rare here for some reason..The only ones they really have here are Labuyo which is a bit like birds eye chili`s.. The rest are pretty mild.

A guy from the U.S kindly sent me some seeds from his last harvest..Some real hotties.. Here`s how they are growing thus far.



Cant remember the name of these ones but you have probably seen them at the market..They are great stuffed with soft cheese battered and deep fried..Hot poppers!! Yum.
