Minions of El Grande,

Has anyone had experience with this chile?  Was picking up some seeds online and this one caught my eye.  May be of Turkish origin ('sella')? Wild guess.  Anyway, you can see a picture along with the reference/vendor here:

Apparently not very hot, but they sound quite tasty and I thought they looked quite nice.  Might be tolerable for some of my non-chilehead sisters.  (Grew so many damned tabasco and thai chiles last year that I've got about all the heat I need in the freezer...that and knowing I'll pick up seedlings here and there....once a junkie, always a junkie...)

Anyway, in the 80's down here in S. Mississippi.  Almost *past* planting time.  Thinking (hoping) it's gonna be a loooong, hot summer.

(hark! yankees cussing and flipping me the bird from afar!)

Hehe...

Peace, Hendrix, and Chiles.......
