I bought Jalapeño seeds and kept growing them thinking it was C. annuum, but when I got back and read the seed package, it said C. frutescens. This is the pepper I’m growing, can you tell if it is annuum pr frutescens?

    It can be incredibly hard to tell without the fruit. I have heard someone here say there is a difference in the leaves but I don’t know enough to recognize it

    If you request an id. Show the flower, not the leaves.

    Jalapeno are an annuum. So if you are actually growing jalapeno, the label is simply wrong
