Hi David,
We're in Highland Park (LA) in the foothills between Glendale and Pasadena.
Mary overwintered some chiles in the ground a couple years ago. Doesn't
frost here usually. And my containers are still alive and even flowering.
I just moved them to protect them from rain but still outside. But I was
really wondering when best to transplant new seedlings?
Thanks,
Riley
