We got this Elephant's Foot plant - Dioscorea elephantipes - a few years ago from local horticulturist Palmer Crippen. It's finally starting to look impressive. 🌴

I was gifted this Dioon in a 3 gallon pot by my late friend Kevin Davis 23 years ago, and it is finally fruiting now. The tomentum covered cones are really something to see. 🌴

This is why my Ghostbirds are so good. They fruit prolifically like a bird pepper with the heat of a ghost pepper 🌶️

These F4 aji Lolo peppers have reverted back to the phenotype of one of the parents. The original cross was Habanero Adalberto x Orange Brazilian Starfish. The F3 of that cross, called Staranero, was crossed with Aji Pineapple and yielded an orange pumpkin shaped pepper which I dubbed Aji Lolo. 🌶️

I grew these labeled as Fried Chicken Pepper, which they obviously aren't... but I also have Bahamian Goat growing so I thought maybe I messed up the tags, but no,after a taste these have almost zero heat. Nada, zilch. I ate a whole pepper and it was just like a seasoning pepper. 🌶️

Mid-week harvest time. Lots of Primotalii in here. 🌶️ These I pulled yesterday and today. Last harvest was on Friday. My season is ending soon...

Here's another weird phenotype of Ghostbird. This one looks like a scorpion but points upwards when developing. 🌶️

Chris🌴🌶️ 🌺 @thegreenman.us · 01/05/2026

I made two potentially successful crosses this year, both on Murasaki Purple. The first crossed with Aji Inca Berry XL and the second was crossed with Primotalii. The Primotalii cross doesn't look viable, the pepper is a runt, so I'm not sure it will produce viable offspring. 🌶️
