Dale, I have noticed that.
The Rocotto was the only one who didn't show any 'burns' after a little
frost in the night.
You could see that the rest of the peppers were hurt by the frost.
Winters here where I live (close to the North Sea) are quit mild normally
not colder than -8 deg Celsius maximum.. but I didn't want to turn these
Rocotto's over the capriciousness of the climate specially as all the pods
are not ripen yet.

Hot regards
