I am really surprised to see seeds of Enjoya, as it was understood that the commercial plants producing striped fruit were only propagated by cuttings. Many of us grew out seeds from store fruit, and no one ever got anything but plain yellow bells from seeds. I am tempted to order some to see if this grower was successful in finding stripes, but I have my doubts. I hope they are not just selling seeds harvested from purchased fruit.

My guess is that's what they are doing. It seems like they are a proprietary seed.

I have quite same thoughts and doubts...

At least we have Sugar Rush Stripey chili pepper from Chris Fowler and Fatalii Seeds.

Somehow I missed the March post and link! Beautiful indeed! I am a hot pepper wimp though, and true hot aficionados idea of medium heat may be too hot for me. Willing to try it just on looks!
