Fruit Basket

Starlight · February 9, 2015

Nope, not the kind of basket you send someone as a gift loaded with fresh fruits, but the pepper Fruit Basket.

While, playing in my pepper seeds, I discovered I have a few seeds of this pepper and plan on sowing it here today.

I googled it, and found on the Reimer site a picture of this pepper in a hanging basket. I wondered if anybody has grown it before and if the foliage is really that dark of leaves?

I wonder also if this pepper spreads like that naturally or does it take a bunch of pinching to create the hanging basket effect?

Also, I know there are plenty of peppers that can be grown for small containers, but are there any others that can be grown in a hanging basket that spread out like in the pic at Reimers?

Gotta love the different and unusual.
