I learnt something new; when the fruits were green, they weren't hot, and tasted more like sweet bell peppers than anything else. The Winter frosts are here, so I have picked all of the unripe fruits and I am hoping that they will mature off the plant. They are certainly turning yellow; I will have to test to see if they get spicy hot as well.
P.S. *strangled voice* I can confirm that the chillis become hot when they turn yellow. *cough*

Peppers too change their flavour as they ripen into the different colours.
