Hi All Back in NZ after a month in OZ. Enjoyed a fresh Hab and peanut butter sammy for lunch. It was great to meet Tara Deen for lunch in Sydney. One real neat lady. Also to spend a couple of days with Luke (the Champ) Speers. A real CH. Lost contact with the list after that as I drove 9,000 km in an old car round to Perth to visit family there. Made a Chile and garlic bread with daughters bread machine. Son in law loved it. I must send him some hab seeds as I am sure they will grow well in WA. I sent a couple of posts to the list but they bounced as they did not come from my subscribed address. Have got my mail set back onto nzol again and am slowly working through about 200 mails:-) The 5 Rocotos I started before I went away were nurtured by my daughter and are looking good. I will be starting a new batch of plants soon although the freezer is pretty full. I may have to try growing some different types this year. Any ideas for unusual varieties? I owe quite a few personal notes and beg tolerance. I will catch up ASAP. Tony Flynn. Grandad. Retired at the beach Bay of Plenty New Zealand. With sunburned right arm from driving down the west coast of OZ:-)
