Thought I'd offer. I might be down your way in the next month and if so, I'll try to scratch it into my brain to bring you some (I go to Windsor on occasion).

On the other hand, in my friend's greenhouse, the berries are doing well, as my fragaria x capsicum cross shows.... we call it the ''pepperberry''...  |

Wow, that is crazy looking. I'll have to show that to fiance. Have you done a tomato crossed with a pepper?

Michael! What a truly excellent fruit! I have a lovely wine made with pistachio honey and camel urine. It has a very tangy note that would be perfect for a vinagrette that would compliment the flavor blendings of such an astounding fruit! ;D

MJ, I can't let the prank go further after such a funny comment. Of course it is photo shop. Shit, the people here are knowlegeable enough to know, but at least I caught monnlilyhead  Moonlilyhead, last year, there was a listing in SSE that claimed a tri-species cross between tomato, pepper and another solanacae, They dais it was more tomato looking. I did not see it this year, but maybe it is still there. If that is true, I would like to know what kind of gene alteration occured... I suspect it was a big hoax... MJ, I need your camel urine vinaigrette recipe |

I thought you would appreciate that Canada! ;D I'd give you the recipe, but then...  ;D ;D ;D I love the Kiwiberry Sphinx. That's an artist signature there in the corner? I remember a while back seeing some gallery shows of such type of art. I loved them and the works were quite amazing particularly back from the days when computers where not as capable as they are today. |

I don't know who the artist is specifically, but the site is Worth1000.com. Same site that Michel's "pepper berry" came from. |
