girl oh my gosh…you have some PEPPERS there! what do you DO with all those hotties??? I love chili peppers and all things spicy. my jalapenos sprouted then promptly croaked but my serrano peppers seem to be doing ok, if not a little small for the timeline (i have a hard time with the folia timeline bar but i am learning). i am going to try many more peppers in the future…man your garden looks wonderful.
