2015 Mostly Mystery 'Mater Mailing - Page 36

Revisiting the Determinate/Dwarf (mostly Dwarf Project) Micro-dwarf category.

I'm thinking about separating Dwarf Indeterminate (again, mostly Dwarf Project) from the others. Determinate/Dwarf Determinate/Micro-dwarfs can all be in a patio/container category. And, those looking specifically for one of these types can put the type on their wish list.

Also, is there a thread anywhere on that large dispersal of pepper varieties this past year, with an update on what I may expect to receive for the MMMM?

Sounds good to me. Personally I am much more interested in the Dwarf Project varieties than in typical determiates

Tribbles - heavily ribbed, pleated, ridged, scalloped, fluted, ruffled beauties

Cool

We have a 3 y/o grandson who eats the ribbed parts and leaves the middle.

Sounds like a spoiled (in a grandparent good way) 3 y/o who gets a PBJ or grilled cheese with no crust.

So, you've met him. lol

Tormato, there is one category I can think of but they are not tomatoes, They are Ornamental Peppers. I'll be sending in 7 different varieties of them. Some are from plants that the seeds were bought in 2007.

I like the ornamental pepper idea, I hope to have seeds from one to send in.

Tormato · July 15, 2016

OK, peppers will have categories for...

Hot
Hybrid?
Ornamental
Paprika
SUPERHOT
Sweet

Did I miss any?

A few years ago, someone sent in an ornamental pepper that they also listed as hot/edible. If the ornamental varieties you have are not edible, I'm thinking that should be noted.

Has it rained yet, Tormato? I'm interested in the list of Blacks that are "too common" in your book.

Only very brief showers.

The list for now is...

Black Brandywine
Black Cherry
Black From Tula
Black Krim
Carbon
Cherokee Purple
Paul Robeson

These should only be sent in mostly for filling wish list requests. There likely will be a few 10 packs sent in for the Black, Cherry, Beefsteak, KYSO categories, which is OK.

Thanks for posting at Houzz about the tomato, pepper, and bean swaps in the Round Robin forum. Would you like to post messages at the seed exchange, growing tomatoes, and bean forums, too?
