Crosses

[JohnF]

Some crosses I started this winter. All except the Ulupica x pubescens were done by another man

Orange Thai x Goat's Weed--no pubescence--I have started one of the others from the second sample he sent ("possibly Orange Thai x Goat's Weed").


Orange Thai x Small Wild from Mexico--like his compact--will be interesting to see what they do with sunlight( I have 2 of these)


Small Wild from Mexico x Naga Morich--lots of buds for such a small plant


Small Wild x Pimenta Morango--flowers and buds--the smallest plant of the group


Ulupica x pubescens--looking more cardenassi like but the flower reminds me of a pubescens-largest plant


Two pictures of first open flower of Ulupica x pubesens






I have recently germinated another try of mine--Ulupica x eximium---stay tuned

[JohnF]

Last of the crosses-Ulupica x pubescens--looking more cardenasii-like

Interesting tests. Especially what happens between those problematic (scientifically unclear) plants of c.pubescens, eximium and cardenasii...

[JohnF]

Yes, I'm impatient to see what the pods look like.

[Margarida]

John, almost all your pictures are missing !!!!  :shock:  :?:  :shock:

[JohnF]

Hi Margarida

Thanks for the heads up. Must have happened when I reorganized my pbase site. Will try to fix when I get a few minutes. Was in Boston for  few days and now even further behind.

I have several pictures of those crosses so rather than try to reconstruct the above I will just show you the end products. These first were crossed by Donnie, not me

Orange Thai x Small Wild Mexican-female parent was Orange Thai but pods are red and extremely hot




Orange Thai x Goat's Weed- again female parent was Orange Thai. Plant showed no pubescence but pods were red and very hot.




Small Wild Mexican x Naga Morich--does not have chinense small or flavor but very hot pendant pods




Small Wild Mexican x Pimenta Morango--again no chinense flavor  but quite hot




Ulupica x pubescen- done by me. The plant looks more like a cardenasii and the pods are smaller than Rocopica but seed are somewhat like Rocopica--only one ripe pod so far.





Ulupica x eximium--still don't know what's going on here--it may be just mislabeled but doesn't resemble anything else I'm growing
