2 standouts
 

Two peppers have been standouts for me this year. I like to cross everything, I lose focus on where I'm trying to get and just have fun seeing what happens. The all purple pepper was from my very first cross with years of selecting for all sorts of different reasons and it ends up with this beautiful color. The striped pepper ironically was from an unknown cross with a guatamalan black pepper and I have been selecting for several years.

Wow! Those are beautiful! Is this the color they are when ripe? Are they hot or sweet?

Both turn red when ripe, the purple one almost maroon. The purple one is quite hot and the striped one is pretty mild. I would like to cross it with a fatalli to see if I could get a striped fatalli.

That purple one looks great! Nice job!

Are these stable yet? They look amazing!

Beautiful!!

I love that purple pepper! How cute is that! The striped pepper is pretty neat too.

The purple one is getting close to being stable but the striped one I haven't figured out yet.

Is the purple one thick-bodied like a Jalapeño? I could easily see a market for purple Jalapeños... ;-)

Actually, I could see both doing well for commercial use as well as home gardening.

Very colorful pictures, thanks for sharing!
