> BTW, what kind of pepper is this?

   I don't know what the name is.  It is from seeds/pods I
got sent to me from a guy in Florida.  The pods were 
about 1/4 - 1/2 inch diameter, round, supposed to go
from purple to red when ripe.  The leaves are said to stay
mottled/variegated as they grow.  The pods looked like
they had been over-dried in an oven, and I had little hope
of them germinating.  I was surprised to get almost 90%
germination.  I also have seedlings from the same source
that are slightly larger pods, and more conical in shape.
