Julie says... Ah, Hungarian hot wax - haven't seen them for many years. I remember Eden seeds used to have them, Phoenix too. I introduced my kids to chili by cooking with these, as they are quite mild. My son is now a total chili freak and grows several types. Mary, I tried for two years to grow Rocotto (seeds I got from you) with no success. They just didn't grow, went yellow and died. Other chillies were OK, so I have no idea. | About the Author Julie Roleystone WA 19th April 2014 1:42pm #UserID: 154 Posts: 1842 View All Julie's Edible Fruit Trees |

Brain says... I'm afraid I don't know it all. But I can see that you have a tabasco (3rd type from left) and a bishop crown/lantern (last one on the 2nd row). Not sure what is the 1st row, left one, could be an african birds eye (similar to tabasco) and my best guess for 2nd row first left is goat horn chilli. Anyway, as it is quite cool now, chilli seeds are quite hard to geminate naturally - unless you have a mini heat mat - hot house. Very tempted to head to the nearest bunnings and get one but electricity and water don't mix too well and you are advised to buy some special circuit breaker. | About the Author Brain Brisbane 19th April 2014 6:59pm #UserID: 6289 Posts: 638 View All Brain's Edible Fruit Trees |
MaryT says... Sorry, Brain, I should have put a coin or something to show scale. From top left are some TINY birds eyes (don't know what they're called really - the nursery just call them Thai chillies), then a mighty hot one I think from Mike? next to some yellow ones then normal birds eyes (my favourite) then a small Rocotto (normally bigger) then a Sorento next to the green Shishito. Second row from left are some nameless hybrid (they are precocious) with the sharp ends (the curly one is just a cayenne, likewise the long one. Then the green ones are Shishito next to the last bell shaped very mild ones from Phil, I think. vict if you want seeds please let me know so I can save them for you. I usually use them seeds and all :) The yellow ones are good for salsa especially when you don't want the red colour in your dish. | About the Author MaryT Sydney 19th April 2014 7:40pm #UserID: 5412 Posts: 2066 View All MaryT's Edible Fruit Trees |

Julie says... Brain, I have a small propagating mat which just fits inside a polystyrene box. I have had it so long I don't remember where it came from, but it sure is useful.I mostly use it to start early summer crops,but I germinate other plants too. Not sure about your comment re electricity and water - this one is sealed and completely safe. It only has one setting, which I think is around blood heat - ideal. | About the Author Julie Roleystone WA 19th April 2014 8:33pm #UserID: 154 Posts: 1842 View All Julie's Edible Fruit Trees |
Brain says... good idea, I must investigate into the propagating mat, as I'm having a hard time trying to get a few chilli seed geminated. And I'm very impressed with your collection Mary. My latest venture is the Yatsufusa (if only the seeds will geminate). Along, with the other birds eyes, they all belong to the capsicum frutescens family and I think it is the best eating chilli for my palate. If all goes well, this time next year, I might have some seeds to share but so far not looking good :( | About the Author Brain Brisbane 20th April 2014 12:34am #UserID: 6289 Posts: 638 View All Brain's Edible Fruit Trees |
