I'm also growing Fatalli's from Pepperjoe's, along with lots of other
varieties, & trying to overwinter as many different types as possible
(easier said than done in the UK). At some point I'll publish the entire
list of survivors & casualties but for the time being the Fatalli I've kept
in the conservatory is most certainly in the survivors group !
Regards,
Tony.

Well, that doesn't sound too encouraging. I did, however, receive
another reply to this off-list from someone who seems to have had
different results. Apparently they developed fairly slowly, but
overwintered just fine. I guess all I can say is wish me luck...

Well at least that part brings my hopes back up a little.
Thanks for the info.,
