The plant itself is tiny compared to my other jalapenos but it’s loaded with flowers. I can’t wait to see what the fruits look like!

    What in tarnation. This is a real jalapeño plant that’s supposed to look that way and is going to produce edible peppers??

      Hopefully yeah but I doubt it’s supposed to look that way though! As far as I understand it the weird white bits are the result of a genetic mutation. I didn’t expect it to survive this long and now it has a load of flowers on it so I’ll find out real soon what sort of fruit it bears 🤞🤞
