Chili Trees

I bought 3 pepper plants at the farmer's market last week. They seemed to be doing rather poorly inside (UV tinted glass?) so I put them outside on the porch and they seem happier today.

2 are Big Jim and 1 is a from hatch NM, but it really isn't a hatch chili unless it is grown in hatch soil and sun.

Maybe I'll get some dirt this year or next time I'm at the Chili Festival. Posted by Picasa

Note: these sad bushes died when we got like 10 inches of rain two days last summer. They floated up out of the surrounding soil, and never really recovered.

Guess that is why proper pots have holes in the bottom.
