I have two different African chile plants that are not like two peas in a
pod. One is over two feet tall, chiles about 4 inches long. The other
plant is about 14 inches tall, and has a very thin tapered chile, about 1
and 1/4 inches long, about 3/16 inch wide at the widest portion. Obviously
there's some contaminated seed, but I don't know which chile to rogue out.
Which do I believe is an African devil chile? I also have a chile called a
"Devil chile" and it's a completely different animal from the African
chiles. Leaves are much larger. The blossoms on both crook downward just
behind the blossom. I think I was told once this was typical of baccatum
blossoms. ??? Thanks very much, Margaret Lauterbach mlaute@micron.net
