I have grown several varieties of capsicum. I have grown them in the same room as the cannabis- so they have exalted status. They have to spend quite a bit of time inside before being put out. The habaneros are the hardest to grow since they are clearly tropical- They can perish in relatively mild cold. The others are hardier. I love those things. They can have more vitamin C than an orange, lots of A and capsicum itself has medicinal uses!
But they can't compare to the Guatemalan Insanity peppers that Homer ate.
I'll have to post the U-Tube clip of that sometime.


A few I have photos of are the Habanero, The Santaka Thai pepper and last but not least- Big Barney. I kid you not.

You might be thinking of Anaheim? I have read enough pepper lore to understand that these are larger green capsicums commonly found in grocery stores. Around Denver, I see some Habaneros that are always orange, as well as jalapeno and the ubiquitous Bell Pepper. There is so much more biodiversity out there that those who refuse to grow their own are missing out on. Like- Duh! I am also growing some orange hotties called Amish Chicken Heart. They are grown by the Pennsylvania Dutch and were grown in Europe also. Pepper Joe's! He da Man!

I go by the color they are supposed to finish with. That and size and firmness. Of course you can always pick them green. They don't have as much vitamin A or heat that way though.
