Season 2013

Bolivian Rainbow (C. annuum): Ornamental pepper with small pods ranging from purple when raw to yellow, orange and red when fully ripe earning its name "Rainbow".
Seeds planted January 29th, first sprout visible February 7th.

Bird's Eye Baby (C. annuum):  Small, very pretty ornamental chili plant with tiny leaves and pods.
Seeds planted January 30th, first sprout visible February 9th.

Chichen Itza (C. chinense): Strong growing plant with fiery orange habanero -type pods.
Pre-grown sprout that seems to be doing well. It's the one in the white pot.

Trinidad Scorpion (C. chinense):  Tall plant with pods with characteristic shape which sees a two or three inch pendant which tapers to a sharp point, "resembling a scorpions tail".
Pre-grown sprout that is clearly suffering from the dark nordic winter. If you compare the recent shot with the one in the previous post you'll notice it hasn't grown at all.
