Delicosa, I think? The HOT philo type right now. The one with the split leaves. No, these weren't variegated. Krogers has, or rather had them, I'm sure they're sold out by now. I'll check our data base and get back to this thread. 😊

Wow! That Kalanchoe species used to grow in my student office back in college. We passed out the little plantlets to everybody. Alas, none survived our move. The one in the office was huge though. As near as we could figure from conversations with past students and staff, it had been left behind decades prior.

It looks pretty poor now after a winter inside. We've had a lot of cloudy days, so even though it sits right in front of a south window, it s light starved. I'm doing cuttings to revive it, and it should recover when I put it back outside for the summer.

Just wait, it's early yet! I would imagine they will look quite different come June; lush, filled out and full of peppers! ( I know the first pics are your peppers).

I do know that I have several of those canvas grow bags and I will be planting most of the 12 new Chili Peppers set to arrive the week of March 29 in
those grow bags.

I had to scroll back to find those pics...I covet, too! I love little handmade pots. When I lived in a more temperate climate I had many similar (but nothing like that collection Lovey dubby ). Alas, can't use them now...here in this arid heat I'd be watering three times a day.

@williator, I think on another thread you said you didn't have a place for tomato trellises. What about using your deck railing?

Well we will see as the deck railing can be pretty shady.

I can say Jared that I have used Canvas Grow Bags before for my chili pepper plants and they did very well. I think you will like the Grow Bags!

Well, I'm trying to decide what new hot pepper I will grow this year. I really liked the one I grew last year.
