This is my second season growing this pepper from saved seed. The plants are fairly small, bushy/branchy types that produce tons of slim little firey hot peppers. These are fairly hot, especially for their size with a semi-fruity flavor (all though not nearly as fruity as say a Chiltepin). Very easy to dry due to their small size. The plants are very attractive when the fruit matures, they look like tiny little red spikes growing upwards.
