    Hello

    I have several naga viper plants that have loads of chillis on them, far too many for me to sow over the next few years. I was wondering if I sell some on ebay can I advertise them as naga viper or will they have changed due to pollination. I dont quite understand how the pollination works for chillis but Ive had them inside only and not touching any other chilli variety.

    Thanks :)

    If they've been grown and flowered along side other chillis then there is the possibility of cross pollination therefore NOT "Naga Viper" having said that, the chilli world is forever changing, newer and hotter ones all the time?

    Why not advertise them as "Naga Viper Hybrids" ?
