It was probably a New Mexico type pepper likely labeled Corno Di Toro by mistake. They have a striking resemblance in color and shape. They are about a notch below the jalapeno as far as scovilles go, but if you are generally not used to the kick in hot peppers, it will knock your socks off either way. Still, New Mexico peppers when dried make great enchilada sauce.

There is one that is even closer than Nu-mex types...Georgia Fire (I think that is the name). It is basically a hot version of Corno di Toro.

I think I'm growing some of these...my dogs upset the pepper flats and the labels were lost, all my peppers are now ???

Hi Duh Vinci,
I got my Corno di Toro Rossa seeds from Diane's Seeds. www.dianeseeds.com
She has a small operation and has provided me with very fast service the last two years.

This is the first year I am growing this pepper and hope it is as good as reports state.

Sorry about your experience with your mystery pepper.

i grew 8 plants last year they where quite fall (4 ft.) most of the perrers where only 6 to 7 inches long and about 1 1/2 inches around and i swear
they had as many fruit as they had leafs, very good flavor also.
