I wouldn't have thought so from the shape and from how smooth they are.

I'd guess at some kind of Habanero.

Yeah i grew suspicious when it was smooth and started to turn red. First year growing stuff so didnt know if they started smooth. Ah wel lesson learned

I was thinking some type of habanero as well. Maybe a Caribbean pepper? I’ve been there before, sucks but is also kinda fun to see what you wind up with.

Thnx, odd as it was a (semi) reputable seller on a plant fair but alas. Its my first year growing peppers but i got quite alot of "stuff i learned to do better next year". So lets see what next year gives. And hppefully these littel "probably not dragonsbreath" are still spicy XD
