We were gifted some starters at the beginning of the summer and told they were bell peppers, but they are not lol. I dabbed one on my tongue and it seems pretty spicy.

    I believe aji limon, it looks just like my plant

    Looks like Lemon Drop. But Mine are not that spicy. Can compare it to a ripe, red Jalapeno.

    Definitely lemon drop/aji limon. I just made a peach pepper jelly with mine and it came out so good!

    Aji lemon aka Lemon Drop. Makes delicious flakes/powder. Great pickled as well.

    I call those a lemon drop chili. My son eats them like candy when they’re fresh. I dry them and use them as seasoning all winter. One of my favorites.

    Aji Lemon drops. Loved them in my mango chilli sauce

    Looks lust like the pods on my Mango Drop plant, except mine are all green still. I have no idea which colors to expect when they ripen. Yours look great!

    Lucky!!! I love this pepper so yummy mine didn’t make it through the winter sadly . Lemon aji are great peppers to add to dishes

  10. Grew these for the first time this year! Lemon drops! They’re delicious!! Just dried a bunch out to make flakes 🙂

    My favorite pepper to smoke and dehydrate.

    Aji. They taste a bit different from other peppers. Some people don’t like the flavor.

    This is the first year I grow Lemondrop. I heard it would be spicy like an Acrata (I think it’s Goats’ Weed in the US), but it’s much more (I live in Europe and I bought the seeds from Sativa, Switzerland). I’ll keep on growing it because I love its flavour, although I prefer milder peppers (jalapeño, Italian varieties like Etna and Stromboli, etc.). Once cooked, it maintains a good flavour and loses most of its spiciness
