Robert - Maybe I misunderstood your post - did you consider Red Savinas 
a hybrid?  I was under the impression they were not a hybrid, but came 
from a single, unique plant Frank Garcia of GNS found in a field of 
habaneros (no tilde), and refined and stabilized through selective 
breeding to develop the open pollinated Red Savina strain of habanero.

Correct me if I'm full of hot air!
