Don't like eggplant? Fine...how about peppers! [View all]

Pictures taken yesterday on my blog - http://nctomatoman.weebly.com/1/post/2013/07/and-more-positives-peppers.html

Some of these are varieties I've developed by "dehybridizing" the pepper Islander (a hybrid, goes from cream to lavender to red). Amethyst (cream to lavender to red), Candy Corn (cream to orange red), Fire Opal (cream to lavender to golden yellow), Royal Purple (chartreuse to dark purple to red), and the unpictured White Gold (cream to golden yellow) - most are at the 6th or 7th generation following initial selection.

No pictures of Trinidad Scorpion Butch T yet (supposedly among the world's hottest peppers!)....they are just about to set fruit.
