New to me this year is "Dragon Roll," a Shishito-type pepper that from the photo looks very much like the "Peperoncino" peppers that I grew in the past, with a Scoville rating of just 200. I mainly want it for pickling, but it sounds like it would be great for adding to stir-fry, or just eating fresh. (Of course, everything sounds great from the seed catalog descriptions, so I'll have to wait and see!)

Essentially all of the pepper seeds that I started on March 30th have sprouted -- one that hasn't, though, is "hot banana," which I also always pickle (and use in salsa and stuff); I'm going to try sprouting some of the seeds in a damp paper towel, if those don't come up I should be able to find a couple of plants to buy!
