YAY, the windowsill Habaneros have started budding!! …I was starting to wonder what was going on with these guys. :)
(sigh) These aren't the white Habs I was originally after (for illustration purposes as much as anything else). Those can wait till next year. But historically these—a standard Capsicum annuum x chinense from Unwin—have grown well on the windowsill of our south-facing kitchen window. So we'll see how they do this year. @petermorwood's been missing having homegrown Habs available...
(immediately runs off elsewhere online to shop for liquid plant fertilizer...)
