A few different mixes of sweet peppers, but I also started jalapeño , shishito, habanero and Hungarian wax as well.

One of the sweet peppers are purple as well.

Looks great! You mentioned cold, I am trying 'Rocoto' peppers this season - I had a salsa and hot sauce made with them in Peru and the flavor blew my mind! They are native at higher elevations and are very cold tolerant, unusual for a pepper! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capsicum_pubescens check it out!

Neat! Did you get the seeds online?

I brought them back with me!! Quick search shows they are available online though!

Hrmm not resistant to frost, and 9 month veg period, that ain’t happening even with a greenhouse where I am.

Great to know about other peppers though! Never heard of them.
