No idea. I think it would be one of the Thai peppers. How is the taste, hot or good flavor? I see a lot of holes on the leaves just curious.

Happy growing

Kinda hot. Still not ripe. Put Sevin dust on to kill bugs..Thanks.

badbrad: Looks like a thai pepper to me. Also, they won't really get their true heat until ripe red.

Another note: Get away from the SEVIN -- it kills all good bugs also. Which, in turn, leaves your garden with no defense.

JMO.

Where did you buy this seed/plant?

Thanks for heads up on Sevin Kevin.
Bought seeds from Seeds Direct on Amazon.

I recently (in april) bought seeds labeled as thai bird's eye peppers, that also ended up not being the peppers I expected.

there's a thread about it here:
http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums/load/pepper/msg0623503321169.html?11

apparently there's some different opinions on what kind of pepper is considered a bird's eye. the ones I have are most likely the thai dragon pepper. which is still apparently plenty hot and good tasting, just not what I expected. plants are extremely healthy though, so I won't complain too much.

what's funny is I have 5 plants of that variety (in 3 pots, as multiple seeds started in some pots), 2 of which have peppers pointed upward, 2 of which have them pointed downward, one of which they're pointing out directly sideways.

Kinda looks like cayenne.

Yeah ! I bought peter pepper seeds all in different packs labeled red, orange and yellow. Seeds Direct through Amazon. All of them turned out to be cayenne. I just dont think you could make that mistake wit all three and now this one. Mighty fishy!!

Thank you all for the feedback !

Try buying chile seeds from a reputable chile seed purveyor who doesn't sell anything that holds still.

I wish people would just quit buying off amazon and ebay for seeds. I realize that many get what they are expecting but every year we see dozens of these reports and 95% of the time, they come from people who purchased off ebay or amazon.
But, I get it. People decide to buy some pepper seeds and grow some peppers. Ebay and Amazon are quick and easy and have great selections so they gravitate there. They usually don't think to ask on the list for trades, give-aways or references to reputable sites until after they have made their purchases.

And most of the time, it is intentional by the amazon and ebay vendors. They sell whatever seed they have and label it whatever is popular that season. They sell hundreds, if not thousands of packs of "bell pepper" seeds as ghost pepper or some other variety. By the time buyers realize they have been had, they likely already gave positive feedback or the seller has closed the account and opened a new one under a new name and is selling more habanero seeds as Scorpion Butch-T seeds or whatever. They make a couple thousand bucks before the accounts get shut down by Ebay due to complaints from buyers.
