I have a Tepin or "Bird Pepper" plant which is a few years old. I have kept this plant around because of it's unique, hot peppers. The plant produces abundant quantities of small, round, very hot peppers, similar to that of a Habanero, however it tends to vary widely with the surrounding environment. Hotter summers usually mean hotter Tepin peppers. I have a relatively abundant quantity of seeds for this plant.

I would like to have some bird pepper seeds. I am from the Bahamas and was told that your Thai bird peppers are the same, can you confirm this? If they are the same, please tell me if you can send me some seeds? I'm sorry I don't have a garden. I'm just starting out, so I have nothing to trade.

i went dove hunting last year. southeast of kingsville tx.behind the lodge was the chiltepin bush all aglow with it's green and orange and red delights. i picked about 30 pods and brought them home to dry. sept. 2011 to mar. 2012.planted them about 1/2" and watered good. least to say, now i have more peppers than i can ever eat. seems as though all sprouted. wow! i usually cut them open with latex gloves on and take out the seeds for next years rows of plantings. they are just hot enough for me to stand ,without adding the seeds to do damage. will later on warm up the vinagar and bottle them next seasons prolific growth. going back to texas this year and will look again . what a treat this is .

I grew up in Southern Texas where we had Birds eye Peppers and now I have been living up here in the Northern US (Michigan and now Delaware). I really need some pepper seeds so I can grow them indoors and have pepper sauce for the fall. Please Help
