Thanks! Here is a link that might be useful: My exchange page

I have missed Ericas since moving down here--my mother used to collect them and had lots. This one looks like I could possibly grow it here. Don't know where you live, except USA! lol Doesn't sound like a houseplant--according to the first source I found it grows 6 to 8 feet tall and 4 feet wide, full sun to part shade, and is hardy to 20 F. Sounds great!

I'm not sure if the Santa fe are the same as the Santa Fe grande but from looking at pictures they look the same. They have really good flavor and are my favorite out of my milder peppers. They were hotter than my jalapeños this year. Im really interested in any of your seeds this was my first year growing so I'm just look to try some new ones.but if I had to name some I would say any of the yellows( bhut. Billy boy, moruga) chocolate hab, and chile de monte all looker really interesting, but like I said I'm open to anything and would appreciate recommendations . I'm not really sure what the Naga variant is exactly. I grew Carolina reapers this year and a Caribbean mix. My dog thought it would be funny to pull out some of my pop sickle sticks that I was using to label them so I'm not sure if it was a pepper in the Caribbean mix or a Carolina reaper with different pod shapes, or maybe even a hybrid but they are super hot and tasty too here is a picture.

I pulled my first ripe Bonda ma Jacques today. This is my first time growing them. If the first pod is any indication of the rest then I'd say it has a Habanero mouth burn but really nails the back of your throat. I was expecting more fruity taste than was present. I'll update if future pods impress me more. I also seeded a few Bulgarian Spicy pods today. Overall, not really a remarkable pepper. It has a milder than Cayenne heat and taste with loads of seeds. Actually as I was munching one I found myself spitting seeds ;-) Here are some updated shots of my Black Cuban / NuMex Twilingt cross. The flowers and pods have the colour charistics of the Cuban but plant and pod shape are classic Twilight. Interesting how the pods start out black and then take on an olive green colour before ripening red. Here are a couple of shots taken earlier this summer. I didn't have time (ok I wasn't fast enough) to wrap any plant I wanted to collect seed from in a mesh row cover. I ended up just wrapping branch ends where buds hadn't flowered yet. My main objective is to keep pollinators away. You can see from this close up of the mesh that it won't effectively block all blowing pollen but I'm comfortable that plant spacing and mesh eliminates 99% chance of crosses. Just for fun I tried the carpenters glue method of keeping pods true. Basically, the theory is gluing the bud before it flowers stops it from flowering and the bud self pollinates and as the pod develops it pushes the glue off. Well, I call this theory busted. I glued and tagged four buds and within a few days all had flowers ;-)) That's it for now. Sorry if I bored anyone ;-)
