Hello there. I have started a pepper (and tomato) seed website recently.  Let me know if you have any questions!  Cheers, Matt

Lesya and Candy Cane Chocolate Cherry were my favorite sweets this year - along with the Lipstick and Snake peppers.

My favorite tomato was the Cherry Blue Cream Berry.  Everglades are always a favorite, they volunteer every year and tend to take over, so if you grow those keep 'em away from anything you care about lol

Awesome collection! Definitely interested in a lot of these for the spring

A couple of questions for ya:
-Your pick(s) for flavorful/rich large tomato?
-Love the taste of habanero; which varieties would recommend based off that? Lower the heat, the better
-For both tomatoes and peppers, what are some interesting varieties with unique flavor profiles?

Thanks!

Purple Peppermint and Great White Blue were really nice big boys.  I am also very partial to the Reisetomate Tomato mostly because of how odd it looks, but it's very tangy and tasty too. 

I would go with the Galapagos Habanero and Peppapeach.  The latter was my favorite this season and I will grow it every year for sauces and snacking.  Right amount of heat.  Nice and crunchy. Galapagos Habs I like to use in salads or pickles.  I grow those every year as well.

My girlfriend's favorite tomatoes this year were the Honey Drop Yellow Cherry.  She would go snag those first before I could squeeze the seeds out. Lol.  I do like the Ajis and Fish peppers.  Fish have the variegated leaves as well as a really nice taste.  Any of the Ajis are also right about my speed.  Scotch Bonnet's and Red Savina habs are also very flavorful (and popular for sauces, etc).  Bird Aji is my favorite for drying and tossing a couple in any meal.  Very nice flavor, not too hot, and they dry very easily if just left to sit out.  I grow those every season as well. 

Cheers!

Cheers and thank you again!

Awesome! I love funky peppers.

Are you into sauteeing peppers at all? I've been digging growing the Corbaci because they have such winding curly form, it's awesome, beautiful, and frys up nice.

Not too often.  I usually make sauce and spicy salts with my leftovers (once I take the seeds out, lol).

Really like your site and got a few things in the cart.

Do you have any peppers similar to CGN 21500?

Thank you again!  Hope to take you up on that sour offer some day.  Cheers :)

Hey thank you!  Happy growing.

I do have some CGN 21500 if you are interested in them.  Not enough to put on the site, but you're welcome to them.  Also have a few different crosses I could include.  CGN 21500 x Scarlet Lantern, CGN 21500 x Barrackpore Red, CGN 21500 x Barrackpore Peach, and CGN 21500 x Isabella Island Galapagos Habanero. Jut mention that in the comments part of your order if you do.

Seeds are here! Thanks so much cant wait till i need more haha. The mattapenio im very excited for!

Thank you too!  I hope everything does well for ya.  The Mattapeno do not like much light and can be slow growing. Something to keep in mind :)
