Everyone is welcome. I am out of Mareko Fana, but I still have some Dolce di Minervino. I will send Dolce di Minervino to folks sending an SASE until the end of January.

It is very fresh seed. Harvested in November. I have a bunch in the greenhouse myself.

Fred,

It's day 7 for me and I've got 100 percent germination on my peppers. Started them on a heat mat and now they are under the lights and looking good

Fred -

I got excellent germination from both Dolce di Minervino and Mareko Fana. Potted up seedlings two weeks ago and they're really growing nicely. Now, just have to wait for some consistent weather to get them in the ground.

Thanks again - looking forward to growing these this year.

Fred,

I got 100% germination on the peppers. I re-potted them tonight, and I am looking forward to tasting them this summer.

Thanks for the great seed! All the peppers are enjoying the sunshine finally after all the wind, rain, and storms (not to mention about ten tornadoes that swung through just southeast of us night before last)

Fred,

What is the growth habit of these two pepper plants? How tall should I expect them to grow (ie, will I need cages, etc.)?

Thanks!
Mark
