One of the two plants - PeruPurpleNormalsm.jpg has normal-looking purple fruits, and they are typical size of about an 1 1/2\' long and 1/2\" wide at the top and they hang upright. But the other plant PeruPurpleLargesm.jpg has the fruits hanging down and they are about 2 3/4\" long by 3/4\" wide at the top and they are almost black in color - perhaps slowly turning to purple. The volume of the peppers on that plant is perhaps 3 - 4 times normal-sized Peru Purple chilis. I\'ve never seen a Peru Purple plant with that kind of fruit so perhaps I mixed another seed in or is this normal? Any comments appreciated. Thanks. |
