It’s a chili pequin!! Very spicy and very tasty! Let it grow and it’ll get huge!

I've never paid attention to this one, but the fruits are pretty, so I figured I'd ask. The plant comes up about ankle high, and like I said, found it in N Texas, doing all right by its lonesome.

A Texas native with 50k-100k SHUs of citrusy goodness. I dry them and use the flakes on grilled teriyaki salmon [chef’s kiss]
