Today I bought two Habanero Plants that say they are new varieties.
The first is from Puerto Rico and is called Sweet Flame, heavy yielding very
spicy but mild 1" x 3/4" round cone form deep red peppers.
The second is a Habanero Tree Pepper, perfect lantern shapes hang in
multitudes, greens, oranges, reds hang gracefully. Fiery hot, sweet &
flavorful train as 6' tree. Perennial if frost protected.
Anyone know anything of these? Anyone grown them? I have grown Habs before
even the sweet variety last year. These do seem to be new.
Also received seeds from the Asian Vegetable Research & Development Center of
C. annuum (1 variety) and C. sp (3 varieties) from the Philippines. Does
anyone know of these. I have extra seeds if there are those interested
trying these.
Thanks for any input.
