Hi, all;

Mrs. Hobby Farmer and I have a 5 year old rocoto plant growing in a 
4 gallon pot in our dining room, thanks to some seeds from Cameron 
Begg.  We walk into it, the cats chew on it and it gets only about 4 
hours of sunlight a day.  When it hits the ceiling or spreads out 
across the floor, it gets hacked back.

It puts out peppers most of the time, but it has been especially 
busy of late.  The peppers have plenty of heat, black seeds, thick 
walls, and an interior that looks like it is lined in red crystals. 
  I've posted a photo at:

I have some extra seeds, several hundred, actually.  If any of you 
would like some seeds, drop me an email.  Rocotos are a very long 
season plant, so if you don't live in a frost free zone, plan on 
having a houseplant for at least one winter.
