Never heard of them and I grow a wide variety of peppers.
What makes them unique?
I grew Thai and Korean before they became main stage varieties.

I like the color of the leaves on yours. Mine is more dark green (bottom left of pic).

Picked some peppers off it a few days ago but have not tasted them yet.

They’re technically in the “ornamental “ category. Known for dark purple foliage almost black and the peppers start as a deep black pearl color then turn vibrant red. I haven’t eaten any yet but supposedly little hotter than jalapeño with an initial sweet citrus then lingering heat.

Lol I can read and you've posted this response to me twice. Peppers would have been a better answer.

All good , the peppers all and interesting and would make a cool hot sauce. I grew quite a few peppers last year but took a break from them this year.
