A Pepper variety question
 

My Dad, God rest his soul, dearly loved hot peppers.
He grew one variety that had tiny (M&M size) multi-colored peppers that were VERY hot! Anybody have any idea what the name of this variety is? I would love to plant some in honor of his memory and to make pepper sauce with.....
Thanks, Y'all!

I don't know peppers that well but the ornamental called Marbles sounds like it might comes close .

Nope, they t'weren't marbles.
They were more wrinkly than smooth (even while growing) and had more colors.
all of Dad's generation have passed on or I could find out real quick. He'd munch them right off'n the bush (usually with a cold beer) or let 'em dry and throw 'em in the sausage grinder when we made sausage - one batch of "sohotyoudon'thavetocook" and one batch of what he called womanandkids sausage! :lol:

Could it have been the wild Mexican pepper Tepins. 1/4 inch in size and purple to green to orange and to red. Very hot. Picture does not look any wrinkles. Says takes 200 days to mature after the setting of plants.

It probably isn't these since they only ripen from green to red, but.....

Sounds like it could've been the tepin crossed with something else, maybe? They were definitely purple, green , orange and red and about that size, but they were "wrinkly"

Picture in seed catalog I have is not all that clear. Just says small round fruit of 1/4 inch and the colors.

My wife found a pepper website - pretty sure the variety he grew is Bolivian Rainbow Pepper.
Gonna order some seeds and try them anyway.
Thanks for all the help! :D
