I did this with some Jalapeños last year, which I thought were heirlooms but obviously were hybrids. The seeds produced a waxy pepper that resembles a Jalapeño in shape, size, and thickness, but is yellow like a banana pepper, and then slowly ripens to orange - though not as bright an orange as habanero.
Still not sure what sort of pepper the Jalapeños were hybridized with. Or perhaps they hybridized with my habaneros last year? Seems more likely that they were hybrid from the start though.
