Cili Goronong
Maraba, this one did not like it in a small pot, but at least I got some pods.
Trinidad Scorpion (the red one) not yet matured.

Criolla Sella capsicum baccatum is a Bolivian chile peppar. The fruits on my plant was 4-6 cm long and 1 cm in diameter. It rippens from green to orange. It has a thin flesh that makes it excellent to dry. It has some heat and a very nice taste. Quite prolific plant.
Some pics from early september 2008. Still no frost, but it has been very cold the last nights.

Blondie is still not white.
Cap 1492 - I love this pubescens pepper.
Aji Panca - Everyone who tried this one really liked it. Not very hot but tasty.

I just could not wait, so I started to germinate White Rocoto when I got the seeds (July 2008) Maybe a little bit early for the 2009 season.

When you grow chile peppers at work then you know you are a chile head
These are my plants (all pictures from 20080528, sorry for the poor pictures)
Hot Pepper Lantern Capsicum Chinense. A plant from 2007, it feels great to have ripe pods of a Capsicum Chinense in may.
Habanero (Habanero Orange) Capsicum Chinense. Several pods on thier way, the unripe pods looks very similar to the leafs in this picture.
Hot coffee from Trinidad
Trinidad Scorpion FG (Yellow) Capsicum chinense
Scorpions on thier way.
The biggest pod so far, Numex Big Jim Capsicum annuum
The longest pod so far, Sweet nardelloCapsicum annuum (sorry I did write Siviri Biber before which was wrong)
A mild one, Petit Marseillais Capsicum annuum
This one should be very tasty, Grekisk paprika (Paprika from Greece) Capsicum annuum
A view from inside, mostly Capsicum chinense but also Aji Panca Capsicum baccatum (sorry it did not fit in the picture!) and the eggplant Ophelia.
This year I grow aubergine for the first time, it is called Ophelia (mini aubergine). The first flower 9/5 2008.
Back to the peppers, Blondie Capsicum baccatum now have flowers.
Soon it will be time to move the plants outside, actually I have some of them outside during the days. Here is a picture from 2007. It shows my small balcony with mostly peppers. It is hard to see the pods, but they where there;) As you see my balvonyspace i very limeted and this means that some of my peppers grow in very small pots, like Chimayo from last year that where growing in the white pot in the picture.
A closer look at the Locato PI387838, sorry for the poor quality of the photo, also from 2007. So many beautiful flowers!
This year I am growing some seeds from sundried Aji Panca. You can buy these in some shops as you can buy Aji Amarillo, Ancho, Pasilla, Facing Heaven, Chilhuacle Negro (i grow this one too), Guajillo, New Mexico, Cascabell. From what I have read Aji Panca is a Capsicum chinense. But now I know there is also a Capsicum baccatum version. The first flower from the plant.
Aji Panca, Capsicum baccatum
Trinidad Scorpion is a very interesting Capsicum chinense. It should be very hot
Habanero White Giant is another interesting Capsicum chinense.
Habanero Black Congo, Capsicum chinense
Cumari, Capsicum chinense
Maraba, Capsicum chinense
The flower of Jalapeno Olé, Capsicum annuum
The flower of Topgirl, Capsicum annuum. The pod is on its way
Aji Colorado, Capsicum baccatum, the flower and...
...the pod. The pod of Aji Colorado reminds me of Aji Cristal (another Capsicum baccatum)
Pods of Champion, Capsicum baccatum
Some picitures from a very nice and varm day i Stockholm (the hottest so far)
Tasmanian Red looks promising, the first Capsicum chinense with pods.
Tasmanian Red
White Fire should be a hot and tasty Capsicum annuum.
White Fire should also be prolific and early. When the finaly mature in red they might easily be misstaken for a small bellpepper.
Blondie, Capsicum baccatum, leaning against the apple tree at our balcony.
A non pepper photo. The balcony apple tree.
20/4 2008. A nice day here in Stockholm.
First a picture from the indoor forest.
These three Capsicum chienense should be very similar. From left to right Trinidad Seasoning, Tobago Seasoning and St. Lucia Island. I belive they are mild to medium hot.
The Bulgarian Carrot is well on its way.
An interesting Capsicum baccatum Inca Red Drop
Maybe the most beautiful plant so far, Criolla Sella
The Brown Rocoto is the only Capsicum pubescens vareity that I grow from seed this year (I also have from last year Locoto Pi 387838, Turbo Pube and Cap 1492)
Fenir Capsicum annuum sometimes have heartshaped pods , it is my wife´s favorite
In Sweden this one is called Grekisk Paprika which means Paprika (pepper) from Greece.
In March I finaly got some seeds from Shiny Red Capsicum chinense that germinated. I now have two small Shiny red plants. I have been looking for this variety quite long, so I am very happy!
Shiny Red, Capsicum chinense from Peru.
A sad note: The Birgits Locoto plant looked very weak so I put it in the trash:(
Misqucho Colorado PI 152225, this capsicum chinense have a pubescens like fuzz on the stems.
It looks very nice when mature, once again I got the seeds from John. Here is one of his pictures. PI 152225.
if that did not work look for it at http://www.pbase.com/chiles400
Many of the peppers now have flowers, Bulgarian Carrot and Jaloro Hybrid F2 have pods. I moved some of the plants to our summerhouse. I reppoted the peppers at the sommerhouse, including the plants I saved from last year (Peruvian White Habanero, Amazon Chile Roma, Locato PI387838, Turbo Pube, Cap 1492, Poblano(this one looks almost dead))
Two pictures from the balcony (not the summerhouse):
The beautiful Rocopica is a hybridised variety which resulted from a cross between a Rocoto, capsicum pubescens and Ulupica capsicum cardenasii.
Criolla Sella, capsicum baccatum.
Now many of my peppers have flowers (Cumari, Criolla Sella, Inca Red Drop, TopGirl, Tasmanian Red)
Tasmanian Red
The Jaloro F? now have four pods. The pods are darkgreen - it looks more like an regular Jalapeno than the Jaloro F1. Jaloro is a hybrid (F1) so my plant which I call Jaloro is actually Jaloro F2. I think I should call it "Jaloro Hybrid F2".
I grow some hybrids this year. If you look at my Tasmanian Red, you can see that it is not a pure Capsicum Chinense, It seems to be a cross with a annuum. I dont know if it stable, but I hope so. It looks amazing at a pepperfriends page Tasmansian RED
I also grow Trindiad Scorpion FG. It is a hybrid from Trindad Scorpion. Dont know what generation I am growing. F2 or F3? I hope it will turn out like this Trinidad Scorpion FG
Cant wait to see how they turn out.
Jaloro Hybrid f2

These pictures are from my picasa blogg, I had to create the picasablogg to show my picasa albums pictures here. For some reason I cant put the pictures directly from my album. I hope I will found a easy sollution soon.
Repotting in february. Fenir capsicum annuum (also called deFenir).
As you can see, it was about time to start repotting. This box contains the annuums and baccatums.
Siviri Biber capsicum annuum its a very sweet not so hot chile pepper. When I tasted this one last year I just fell in love with the taste.
30 chile peppers just repotted. All annuum or baccatum except Rocopica
The same windowsill. 2 weeks later.
The same windowsill, from above.
Windowsill nr 2. Chinense and baccatums.
Windowsill nr 3. Mostly chinense but also Rocoto Brown, Blondie, Jalapeno Olé, Birgits Locoto.
