UPDATE...New White Flowered C. Pubescens or Hybrid????

[junglerain 8]

Here are a few Pics of a C. Pubescen I've been growing for 2 years now,

I obtained the seeds from seed bank in the Netherlands as CGN 22797

I sowed 4 seeds and 3 of the plants were normal but as you can see the fourth is very different.

the first year only produced a few pods which were aborted due to the cold winter weather

but the second year I was able to isolate a few pods....

As you can see the seeds from the white flower strain are a tan coloring not the usual black

that the C. Pubescens normally have.....however the original seeds were black, so I would think this to be a Hybrid perhaps????

It will be interesting germinating the next f2 generation of this Capsicum plant...

That's so strange and intriguing!

 

It's worth a deeper investigation, because theorically C.pubescens cannot cross with other species (only with some wild such as C.cardenasii)
