Yellow Habeneros

The last couple of years the place I get habenero seedlings only had yellows and no reds. I like the reds better and thought they were hotter. Even though the picture on the seedling package showed a yellow fruit, the plant eventually produced red fruit as shown in the pic below. In the last few years and this year I'm only growing a handful of habeneros (8 this year) but a bunch of years ago I used to grow over 70 plants with a mix of yellows and reds and I actually got yellow and red habs. I wonder if perhaps all habeneros being distributed now via seedlings have converged to the red type. I'm not complaining, just curious. I like red habs and they look nice when placed in a pile.
