A frost resistant chile would be a great boon to those of us who live 
in places with cold Winters. For example, here in central Ohio it has 
only been frosty on a couple of mornings so far this Autumn and it is 
now mid November. I once had a rocoto plant that survived 27degF 
(-3degC) but it was in a sheltered place out of the wind. Anyone have 
even lower temperature chile survivors?
