I bought a few plants labeled "ghost pepper", at a local nursery. As they have grown, it's become fairly apparent that they are not ghost peppers! Sadly, the nursery is closed for the season, so they can't help. I have spent hours searching online, and still have no answer. Please help!

It is hard to see the fruit image- if possible, take another picture. Thank you!
