Ok heads, My only experience with Caribbean Reds was a few years ago when a (then) co-worker grew them and gave me a few. They looked like Habs., more or less; as do the ones in the photo on the tag that came with my plants this year. The PODS, however, look similar to some mushroom chiles that same ex-co-worker grew that same year; or also, similar to a Scotch Bonnet, but larger than any I've seen previously. Unfortunately, they are still VERY green, so maturity color won't help right now. Anyone else ever buy Caribbean Reds only to have them not be??? -- Erich C-H # 2099 Silver Glen American Shorthairs www.worzellaphoto.com/pets/index.htm
