I purchased a pack of Tabasco seeds, and this ended up in there. I have no idea what it is, can someone please ID it for me? (Here is a close-up )

It's my first year growing hot peppers, but I don't think any variety has a flower cluster like that, right?

Thanks!

I think you may tobacco. Look it up on the net. Plant looks the same to me.

Yep, looks like it to me. The flowers will spread out a bit as they grow. You sure have an impressive list of peppers growing. How are they all doing?

We are all under the same stars... therefore we are never far apart.

A couple people on another forum think it's pokeweed. [tears]

If it is, I'm so glad to have ordered Tabasco pepper seeds to get a poisoneous plant instead! No wonder it's the best-looking plant I have going, after all that nice organic fertilizer I've been feeding it! [Big Grin]

Do y'all concur with pokeweed, or could it still be something else?
