What peppers your growing for 2018

[chadandpia]

I have limited space and use most of it for tomatoes but I have always had at least 2 Shi★★★★o plants as I love them fried in some olive oil and sea salt .. this year I decided to try some different varieties to go along with the 2 Shi★★★★o plants (darn seed catalogs are sooo tempting!!!)

Fatalii (1 plant)
Sugar Rush Peach (1 plant)
Dragon Roll Hybrid (1 plant)

.....

Elephant's Ear
Palanacko Cudo

Isn't Slonovo Uvo (Elephant's Ear) the same thing as Palanacko Cudo or a close hybrid (or something like that)??

I will be interested to hear how those two compare.

They didn't seem the same when I grew them together for a couple of seasons, but were very similar in fruit size and shape. Palanacko was sweeter and my favorite of the two even though it was less productive.

I'll try to post pictures and results this season.

I'm not doing any grow bag plants this year, so peppers are being downsized--

Melrose
Big Jim Numex
Jimmy Nardello
Feher Ozon
Shishi to
Aleppo
Calabrese
Elephant Ears

The Jimmy Nardello and Elephant Ear seeds are from 2014 and hoping they germinate. If not, I'll need pick a couple of substitutes.

They look quite similar, but these Palanacka Cudo and Slonovo Uvo are different Serbian varieties.

I am almost certain that I introduced both varieties. I brought them back from Serbia. Though they are very similar in many respects, they are distinct commercial varieties that do grow true to form from saved seed.

This is what I have for this year
Poblano
Big Jim’s Legacy
Slonovo Uvo (my favorite pepper from last year!)

Not very fancy, spicy or special but these were my favorites from last year and grew well for me.

Cayenne
Golden Cayenne
Fish Pepper

Great number of pepper plants, Vladimir.

One remark about spelling - Marinkin Yazychok (Marinka's Tongue). This sweet pepper is from Dnepropetrovsk (Ukraine) and the pepper shape is similar to a tongue.

The same for me, Alex. I've been spreading out to USA/Canada/Australia/Germany seeds of Palanacko Cudo, Palanacka Babura, Kurtovska Kapija, Macvanka, Duga Bela, Zupska Rana and some other Serbian/Yugoslavian varieties since 2004

That is fantastic Andrey. The more people we can share some of these great varieties with the better. I also love Somborka, a medium sized, mildly spicey yellow pepper great for stuffing with cheese.
