	From G. Caselton's "Database of the known 
	varieties of the Capsicum"  I find:

	Limon, A yellow "lemon Drop" pepper.
	Very hot. (Capsicum chinense).

	There is also "Aji Limon" from "Peppers of
	the World" (DeWitt/Bosland), very hot, 
	grows well in pots, lemony flavor, 
	Capsicum baccatum, also known as 
	"Aji Yellow".  I am growing this type.

	Good Luck!
