So it is pepper planting time again. Some of you down South even have fruit already.

Let's talk about all sorts of peppers here.

Here is my main pepper bed. Each plastic cup has a pepper and cups are to stop cutworms.

I still need to mulch but at least they are planted.




So here is my other pepper bed.


This one has some of those heatless hot peppers like Habanera and Aji Delight. Also Trinidad perfume which looks like a hot pepper but hope its not hot.

Peppers in today
Zavory (2), Tricked You (1), Lipstick (1), Sweet Banana (4), Takii Ace (3), Big Red (2), Carmen (2)

Sounds like an excellent pepper selection!!

I don't seem able to resist anything. For some reason I started looking at pepper selections and I came across this one-

https://all-americaselections....

All America Selection called Mad Hatter. The shape just gets me and I like the description which said very prolific.

Oh I remember that! I saw it growing last year at the Backyard Farmer Garden on East Campus in Lincoln NE. Didn't get to taste one though.

That one has such a pretty shape!

Too bad you didn;t get a taste. The shape just makes me really want to grow it. And the taste description sounds so good.

It was still a bit early in the season, the peppers hadn't colored up yet.

I looked-Rita, how can you resist? Imagine that filled with chicken salad, or cottage cheese. Or baked beans.

Cream cheese and basil mixed and then stuff and baked for 20 minutes.

Yeah! You have to order seeds so I can live through you vicariously!

Oh no, I have plenty of peppers for this season and they are already planted. I would order these with my seeds for next season.

I also found Mad Hatter at Seeds N Such. Liked their write up about them.

Seeds N Such has some other things I want for next season so probably this fall I will orders from them.

So here I am looking at seeds and stumble upon another fatastic sounding pepper.

Red Belt Lamuyo Hybrid Sweet Non Bell Pepper --

Red Belt is a lamuyo type bell pepper. They are a long type (lamuyo) which are more popular in in Europe. They get a bout 5 inches long x 3.5 inches wide. If you want red let it ripen on the plant. Just think of it as a skinny bell or a fat dark green cubanelle. Other varieties include Lido, Macarena, Magali-R , Jackpot, Reina, Gemini...

It just sounded awefully good to me. Of course I am not gonna order for this year but for next year I am certain I will get seeds of both these peppers I have mentioned.

I am growing Midas first time this year which they say is that lamuyo type. It turns yellow. We will see what I think of it.

Midas should be one of the better ones. http://sakatavegetables.com/wp...
