	Right smack dab in the middle of the lower 48, zone 5,
	my habs are doing the same thing.  Two dozen fruit on
	9 plants, not counting the lone datil that has had one
	lonely bud bloom/drop.  I'm hoping that the cool, moist
	spring combined with the hot/dry spell (recently ended)
	has slowed them down, not stopped them up completely.
	There's still a good 60 days left in the season, 40 or so
	with temps high enough for them to set fruit.

	Now, if I could get more than one rocoto blossom in bloom
	at a time, I might get one of them to set fruit.  At least the
	two that are in the best shape are in 5 gallon buckets, ready
	to come inside when ol' Jack Frost comes nipping at their
	nodes.

	Scott... KCK
