Imagine what a different series it would have been if Nero Wolfe grew
chiles instead of orchids...
I think, though, that the original question in this thread was whether or
not some SF junkies were also chile junkies.  Certainly not all fans of
sci-fi/fantasy/horror enjoy chiles.  I have quite a few FSFH friends who
think that I'm out of my head for wanting anything hotter than jalape~nos
in my garden.  I also have friends who are chile-heads (not list members)
who have no idea who Frank Herbert is.  (They'll get a lecture if they
don't know, though...)
And now, to try and get back on topic:
Jalape~nos:  14 seedlings
Thai Hots:   6 seedlings
Cayenne:     6 seedlings
Habaneros:   ~8 seedlings
Red Habs:    12 seedlings!
These plants are the ones I am supposed to be keeping.  They don't include
the Charleston Hots, the Cherry Peppers, and all the other veggies I wanted
to plant in my postage stamp garden.  Anyone have any recommendations for
maximizing space?
