Weird Giant Aconcagua!

I grew and planted three Giant Aconcagua plants this season just to see how big the peppers are, how productive the plants are; and how the peppers taste. I know I only planted one seed per cup in five cups because I only had five seeds. Two of the plants are producing both large Bell Peppers and Giant Aconcagua peppers. They are producing different peppers on different stems, not on the same stem. The third plant is producing only Giant Aconcagua peppers. I ate one of the Giant Aconcagua's in the garden. If I had closed my eyes before I took the first bite, I would have thought I was eating a Bell pepper. Anyone ever see different peppers on the same plant before without cloneing?

Well, I've seen tomatoes produce different shapes on the same plant (but not consistently every year). I'm not so sure about peppers.

Can you post a picture?
