I have just published this request on another NG by error.
I meant it to be this one. Hi. Can anyone help. My beloved dried and sowed some pepper seeds. Bell pepper I think. The results are now in the garden but the flowers look nothing like pepper. The seed pods/fruits have largish hairs, I have not felt them. I have put some photos on a temp web site in the hopes that some kind person can enlighten us. The URL is http://www.drivehq.com/file/ShowFold...shareID=240987 Many thanks in advance Derek -- Nuestra página web es bilingüe Our web site is bilingual http://www.amigosesp.co.uk |

What a surprise. Many thanks to you and Des for the elightenment. I have now done a search with the info to find pics etc Have shown it all to my beloved and she is flabergasted. Can't understand how the Pepper seeds have turned into Datura ones:-)) She tells me that she took the seeds out of the pepper, dried them in the greenhouse the sowed them in pots in the compost that I had bought from FOCUS. Every pot had a plant and she planted them in the garden where these the Datura are now growing. Any theories as to how it has happened? I can't imagine a bird dropping them all in such a neat pattern and killing off the Peppers:-)) Regards Derek |

My advice is to wear marigold gloves, rip the buggers up and take them to the dump, they will self seed prolifically otherwise. |
