Nice collection! I grew almost exactly the same varieties this season. Lousy season so didn't get anything unfortunately. Looking forward to next season now!

I'm going to be a sweaty-toothed wildman this season with eggplant. I'm planning on growing
Rossa Bianca Galine
Since I've never managed to keep an eggplant alive EVER, this is a crazy optimistic list for Oxbow Farm.

Oxbow,
Somewhere around August, roll that beautiful greenhouse of yours over the top of them and tuck them in with a heating pad. They don't like cold!

I've never gotten them to August, my dear. I will try them under a hoophouse. Theoretically the strawberry house will come off them end of May and I'll move it south and turn it into the pepper and eggplant house. Time will tell.

If I can get it at the nursery, I'll plant 'Fantasy' eggplant. I've really enjoyed it: A small purple eggplant that I harvest when it's about thumb sized.
My sweet peppers this year are mostly landrace seed that I've saved. I have a few new varieties to trial from people's home gardens.
I'll look for jalepeno and poblano at the nursery.

Joseph, if you have a few extra sweet bell landrace seeds I would like to accomodate them in my garden. I have had mixed results so far with what I can purchase here locally as transplants. Maybe a landrace bell will work here in Forney, TX

The one I have is a dehybridized version of the one from Pinetree. I saved seeds a few years ago not realizing it was a hybrid. Now it is producing the most pods of any pepper. BTW there are some varieties that I am starting and selling but not growing myself. I have gotten impatient with slow or meager producing varieties.

Steev, If you have 6 extra Hungarian Goulash Pepper seeds, I'd sure appreciate it.
We decanted the Persimmon Chella and Leo ordered that it needs 4 more weeks....
Minnie, You are a wild and spicy woman.
Tom, I suspect those smokin' hot peppers is what makes for easier delivery. Congrats on that new young 'un and Violet is a beautiful name. I have some white ones in the garden. I'll dig you up a patch to plant for her. (PM me your address) What a wonderful wife! Four daughters....yikesss
