  I'm already growing Rocotos (Red and Yellow). Imho, they also need
a fair bit of light, but can do without the warmth necessary for habs.
The "Cherry Bomb":s seem to be the happiest of my plants. They, and
the "Winter Warmers", produce enough fruit to keep me busy.
The other ten, or so, kinds provide enough for change and spice. :-)
Must have said something wrong to the chiltepin, though. It seems to
be sulking. May just have run out of pot-space. Have to remember to
check this weekend.

  Haven't tried the chipotle marmalade (yet). Do you make your own
or just combine ready-made marmalade and powder?
