Photos from 2021 but I still have seeds from this plant and I am considering to grow some. It was from a Capsicum chinense, spicy but not overwhelming and a really floral smell to it

I’m seconding the id for peruvian white habanero. Some spicy little devils. Seeds for them are pricey because there are so few in each pod but they are not rare by any means. It is one that you will want to grow in close proximity to each other because they are not only small plants but they do not put out a ton of peppers like other smaller varieties (ie bird’s eye.) it’s a tasty pepper that I have had a variety on spice level. Some on par with habaneros, others are more along the lines of an Arbol but they all have a sweet floral taste and smell that is super unique. It is one of the few peppers I wish people crossed more but perhaps that’s a project for myself in the coming years.
Good luck on your grow.

Sometimes potential yield varies from plant or seed bank. I’ve certainly had plants from the same variety perform way better than its siblings, maybe you were just unlucky with that one Anyway, I’ve been wondering what it would be like to crossbreed different species, like Capsicum annum with chinense or baccatum. I have a native pepper from my country (Capsicum chacoense) that may be interesting to try with
