bump! can anyone spare any chili seeds?

What do you consider chilis, biscombe? I grew almost 2 dozen very hot peppers, from chocolate habaneros to purple jalapenos to devil's tongue to purple-leaved bird peppers to vietnamese tri-color. Is that what you had in mind?

I can, uh, spare plenty. Nobody will touch them, including me, but they sure made a beautiful pepper patch.

Thats just the thing summerkid!! what would you like in return? I could nip to the garden centre and buy some packets of seeds for you or send you some of the tomatoes mentioned!

The tomatoes would be great. I don't have any of the varieties you mentioned except the cherry tomatoes.

I'll pick & dry a pepper off each plant & send them whole. I believe there were 21 but don't quote me. That way you'll have some idea of what they looked like, and I'll forward my notes on the entire shebang.

Thanks for swapping

Peppers have a real reputation of crossing so easy. So any peppers which are not bagged or isolated will surely be crossed. No problem with this if you just want to grow some hot peppers; but, the fruit from these may or may not look like anything the parent plant produced. I hope you find this helpful as you plan on your next growing season.

Thanks, Gary, I didn't know that. Will make for another interesting patch because this was by far the most colorful thing I've ever seen in a garden. I'm going to use the purple-leaved ones as edging next year, in fact.

Maybe that explains why the "white habanero" has failed to produce anything at all?

A small hot red pepper from a Spanish friend last year turned into a large milder peppers this year from saved seed!! grown next to a lipstick pepper!!

I have an experimental chile that is being developed by the local university. Would you be interested?

but a hot crossed with a hot would still be hot, wouldn't it?
i'm going out in the morning to isolate a few last blossoms.
