A new favorite!

Six seeds were started, and all six germinated and were eventually planted outdoors. I kept two and shared the rest. One was planted in a raised bed, the other in a self-watering pot. The self-watering was certainly easier to look after, but the other plant produced nearly double the crop and had larger fruit. Both were terrific producers. The fruit has been used sliced in salads, mixed with yellow habaneros for jelly, used in hot salsa, and dried for use wherever needed later. Nice flavor and good but not overbearing heat. A definite variety for 2023!
