I just harvested my first 2 rocotos from the plants I grew last year!  About
the size of large habs.  And hot!  But quite tasty and fleshy.  Rocotos and
aji amarillos are becoming my favorites.  The rocotos had lots of flowers,
but most of them came late in the season.  Also had a lot of blossoms drop
for the ones appearing last summer, apparently from the heat.
