Greetings from NW Indiana

I grew one Trifetti, bought off the ChileWoman in S.Indiana.  Grew about
1.5 to 2 feet tall.  I kept it in a pot about gallon sized.  

<ramble>
Container growing made it easier to isolate from other pollinators; I
isolated it in hopes that its seeds will be viable and
purple-producing.  Green pods went to purple, purple pods ripened to
red, then I dried 'em.

Hasta la lista,
