Tara, John, et al,-
I have been growing Bishop's Crown for years. I have one plant in my front
flower bed that is now 3 years old; comes back out of the root each spring.
It already has a load of fruit on. Very prolific plant, sweet exterior,
moderate heat in the core. I currently have 12 plants going. Each will
produce 200-300 pods in the long season here. C. Bacattum, bushes 3' tall,
3' across. One last year sent out runners through other bushes 5'-6' long.
Excellent plant. I got my original seeds from Terra in Florida, every one
germinated. Since then I have been planting new ones from my best
performing plant each year.
