hello all

i bought this plant from my local nursery and it was called a pepper plant. i like this plant and want to find seeds to grow it again, so i was hoping someone might be able to tell me what the plants actual name is so i may find the seeds online. any help will be greatly appreciated.

thanks

Hi 420, nice forum name, welcome from South Carolina. Experts on the forum can tell you better than I, but this may be a Black Pearl. Nice dark purplish foliage. Take more pictures when you get pods. Another ornamental pepper you might like is Tricolor Variegata.

thanks for the greetings. when i bought the plant 6 weeks ago it had flowers but they all dropped. Still hoping it will flower again. I am new to this as we just moved to a new house that has the room to grow. I love the super hots but the edible ornamental s are so kool  to watch and grow.
i am hooked and am planning on growing inside through the cold winter here in canada

Any ideas on the name of the plant now?

I have a couple Chinese 5 color that look like that, but it could also be Bolivian Rainbow or Purple Flash. I also have a black pearl, but it's much darker than yours.
