Great haul, Rajun. Love the colors. What do you think of the pod shape of the peach DT? To me it seems smoother with a more rounded bottom. And very odd ripening change. A cross, maybe? Please save seed and try next year to see if it's anywhere near stable. Could become popular.

This cross popped out of a pack of White Devils Tongue seeds. When the plants were all about 12" tall I could see this one pepper grew taller and had purple stems so I moved it to a 5 gallon bucket and kept it separated to save seeds. I'll grow out plants next year and see if the stems remain purple and maybe the flavor will change too.
Those pods are from the first peppers I picked and 99% of the peppers now all have a pointed tip. I think it resembles some Aji types and Pink Tiger.
It would be nice to know what was crossed to make Devils Tongue.
