Well we're doing nicely now. Have several tiny scotch bonnets growing, as well as some Old Mother's (teats...  ) and the friar's hat is flowering. The Thai Dragon has the most weirdly shaped chillies - seven of them so far - as half of them are curly!
Only annoying thing is that the Jalapeno and cherry bombs, though very quick off the mark, have now stopped setting more fruit so I think it's time to repot them. This despite me hand-pollinating them!
Must get some pics

blimey. We had one of those in some tomato-based curry sauce P made the other day. It may have been frozen for a couple of years, but I still see no reason to back off from calling them the orange nightmares! They do take a while to turn. Worth waiting for if you like having no taste buds for a few hours.

Probably!

I've found my original list Wards, but not what I had extra of, sorry. Taking into account my vino-befuddled brain, I have a feeling it may have been Aji yellow or Rocotto orange, but don't rely on that!!

Or tell them that their performance isn't up to scratch and you'll need to put them on daily report  _________________ The most I can do for my friend is simply be his friend.
