Not a Jalapeno type. Jalapenos are pendalent (hang down) and are at best moderately hot. Look through this data base for an upright growing chili that starts black. It may be an ornamental type many of them do grow upright and start out black and turn red , Examples Black Cluster, Black Cuban, Black Coban. They also tend to be very hot, but not much flavor otherwise. Other upright growing hot peppers like the Tobasco go from green to red. http://www.g6csy.net/chile/database.html
