I love the detail in these leaves. Our plants on the deck are growing nicely. I can’t wait to harvest some peppers!

The weather got warmer so I brought last year’s pepper plants outside, and also put the new peppers into pots. The new plants already have several peppers growing! I’d say another couple of weeks and we should be able to eat them. I’m not sure if the Scotch Bonnet plants from last year will bear fruit, but I couldn’t throw out perfectly healthy plants.

A mild cold from arrived here in Central Texas, so I brought our pepper plants in. Hopefully the weather will warm up in a few days and they can go back out into the sun. The peppers are starting to grow, so I’m very excited!

BTW, Anko is enjoying the new greenery in our house:

Our deck garden is looking good so far! The pepper plants are in various stages of growth… some are huge, and some still tiny. I am still optimistic about a good harvest, but the 100+° F heat can’t be too good for them. Crossing my fingers.

We started a couple of months earlier than usual with this year’s Scotch Bonnet peppers. I’m hoping to have a successful (first ever) harvest of Scotch Bonnet peppers. I’ve grown plants before, but they never bore any fruit. Wish me luck!
