When I was like 5 my older sister tricked me into closing my eyes and eating some. I’m 40 now and still remember the pain!

Looks like some kinda tiny birds eye chili to me, we had ones just like that growing wild near my nonnas place. Super hot for their size, so be carefull if you try them.

Those look like ornamental peppers, you can try to eat them but they’re ridiculously spicy
OP, wtf is with your name?
Yes, theyblook like pequin peppers. Have you tried one yet? What’s the flavor like? Pickling or drying?
I love peppers but I’ve never seen these until now. Grateful for this post and others like it. There is so much out there that we do not know.

Ornamental – not eating is what I’d call it.
Piri piri in my country. Extremely hot!
In my country we call it “monkey peepee”. Adequate for your username.
I’m going to try to translate what my grandma said about small peppers: This visitor rings the bell when coming in and going out.
Oh that’s a pickled pecker Peter picked

I dug one up that sprouted up on my fence line. It’s doing really well in its planter. Hardy plants for sure
We call them “grove peppers” in Florida as they were common to find in the orange groves.
I chop the caps off of them and let them ferment in a bottle of white vinegar with a little sprig of rosemary.
