Hi Dewi, Yeah everything you have ever sent here seems to have made it and
most seem to be growing although I have only managed to get one Black
Namaqualand to come up. But still that's enough. Have you got any newies.
They have names for people like me here in Oz but hey if you dont ask you
dont get.  And anything I get to grow and set true seed I am more than
willing to Share. I should have a heap of the Broome seed ready soon, a tall
growing Hot one from our far north west. Apparently Aussies only chillies
and even that's not really the truth as the Chinese pearl divers bought it
here a hundred years ago or so and it sort of settled in.It grows as a
perennial in Broome. I saw Cross Country was selling plants this year(I
think). I still have that mutant hot cabai that grows into a tree 7' tall+
and just fruits and fruits and fruits. I have about 7 zillion seeds from
that one. My one is 5 yrs old now and still going.
Any takers?
Kind Regards
Marc Winterburn
