Hi, I have a pepper plant that I grew from seeds obtained in
Peru.  I planted the seeds during January 1999. The plant is
now 2ft tall and 3 feet wide (growing quickly). During 8/99
I had several bright red peppers approx. 2" in diameter. The
peppers are very round and pucker in at the bottom .  My
peppers were NOT hot. They were mild with a "bite" to them.
(Delicious in salads!)

I have about 50 flowers on it now.  I  looked at the flowers
closely and the,

Filament = purple
anther = black and white (almost looks striped)
style and stigma =  off white (with slight hint of green)
ovule(?)  [where the style comes out] =  green
petals = white, shaped like stars that hang down
node = about 50% have two flowers, the remainder have only
1.
>
Can anyone help me identify this pepper plant?
Thanks
Roberta
