Also does anyone know what its compatibility as far as creating hybrids with other chilli species are.

I believe its closest relative is C.annuum so that's worth a crack...

One of my favorite plants at the moment...

Good work, I grew a pair of the bastard things for 4 years and they never flowered :lol:

I guess they need the tropics.

Some data from the United Nations, of all places:

It looks like in interspecific crosses its best to use galapagoense as the male parent.
