There are quite a few "ornamental peppers". They are just like other "Children of El 
Grande" and are edible. Without seeing images and dimensions, it's hard to tell, but 
if they were showing those colors at one time, they are probably Capsicum Annums.

One really fancy one with pods sticking up is Medusa hybrid. Seeds are too 
expensive for me to sell them but I would love to be able to.
