I'll be set for next Spring! x Well, I've had three goodsized chile plants producing like mad on my kitchen windowsill for two years now; very handy for plonking a few into coffee. :) Most chiles seem to be awfully tough and resilient. But personally, I'd sure hate to see a tree cut down, particularly a mature one, for the sake of my garden. (Or maybe you were kidding, I dunno.) x Rain @@@@ \\\\\
