The thai/fish is a red/whitish variegated color. I dont have any pics of them. But they have held true to their cross for 3 plus years now.

Sounds purty, especially as an "edible landscaping" thing like in a row down the driveway. Taco Bell always has a row down both sides of their entrance of chile plants, maybe 8 inches high. They are the candelabra-type with the yellow-red peppers pointing straight up.

LOL. I don't eat there, but their driveway joins the one at the bank and I do go to the bank sometimes. Phil, you sound as bad as me when it comes to "collecting" seeds. I will see if they pulled the plants, we've had 2 killer frosts. Possibly they were put in by a landscape co and are hybrid anyway, cross yer fangers....

Phil- It's all been ripped out and replaced with pansies now, sorry dude. And pink/green Kale. I guess that will stay for most of the winter here. I never paid much attention to landscaping before.

This is the earliest I've ever had a bloom on a pepper plant, of course it's also the earliest I've planted....

This is what my kale in a container looks like for now. When this coming weather front has passed, I plan to thin and eat the thinnings.

I ended up taking Phil's suggestion and cutting the kale about 2 inches high, half the container and came back today and cut the other half and then thinned them. Thinning was after the photo. I hope I can have kale again from this container, but two meals is good too.

Probably need to do another photo. We have had lows as low as 19F but today is cloudy and 47 for a high. I think I'll go and check out the greens now. ETA I'm back. Cold temps have held down the growing-back but this week is supposed to be a little milder with a couple sunny days, then rain, so I have hopes. Today's pic...
