Anyone know what this is called please.

[Mezo]

Hi all, can anyone identify these little things please?

Ive tasted it, its fairly zingy but not real flashy tasting, its growing in a backyard he just moved in to.

Cheers,

Mezo.

I'm going with bitter too. All the ones I have ever eaten have been bitter (and disgusting).

Maybe though, just maybe... Brisso soil rejects O Habs and makes them bitter to punish the grower for even considering putting that crap into it...?

Nah its gotta be to much radioactive brisbane sun that turns them bitter

That's probably more like it....

Hey Mezo... we want to see and have a burl at identifying the other pods already!

We already got it... it's Orange Habanero. Maybe mongrel, maybe not. Google that sh*t and you'll see. Everybodies O Habs look slightly different...

Next one!

 

[Ferrero]

Hey mezo what did they taste like? I agree with Gas

Are we talking full mongrel harry.or merely a half mongrel?

Its been growing wild in this yard for years, thought it may be some Aussie bush chilli or something?

Mezo.

I've had issues with growing conditions that result in pods being spoiled by a bitter after taste. Habaneros I don't remember the orange habs though suffering this issue. Are you able to describe what exactly made it taste awful?

i cannot stand orange habs! WAY too sweet!

I've grown 3 orange Habanero candidate strains and none ever put out what I would call sweet pods. The first was a United Nurseries Yellow Habanero, the second was a Floriana Habanero and the third set were meant to be Fatalii plants. Despite some differences in pod shapes the taste was consistent among the 3 strains

Well id say it was a bitter taste, i should have eaten more i guess to judge it fully but spat it out on the floor.

Mezo.

Cap Chinense Anvillus Amberi- aka the Sun's Helmet. This a lesser known variety that originates from Panama. Not to be confused with Orange Habs they are thinner walled and have a alkaline based acidity. Most have few seeds and are quite palatable. I think that should have figged out your problem here.

I sussed out the other two on my own, took a fair while reading & looking at pics.

Still don't know what this hab/mongrel thing is though? you try & find a "Cap Chinense Anvillus Amberi- aka the Sun's Helmet"

I couldn't find anything on it?

Mezo.

Yeah, that'd be right, Mezo.... figure the others out by yourself and spoil the fun for the rest of us!

In all honesty, I don't think you'll find an exact indentification of the orange one... it looks too generic to me. I dunno... I could be wrong!
