They ARE really pretty, but not cheap. Retail is $24-$37 each, but I got them at near-wholesale or they wouldn’t be in my yard, LOL!

I’ve kind of outgrown the old-fashioned Annabelles, though they are beautiful in the right spot. :)

Mine has spread to two more distinct bushes. I need to dig them up and relocate them, but I’ve run out of garden space. I’m in the process of convincing Mr. T. to buy some more topsoil.

I buy a few every year for my garden. I save change all year for the splurge, LOL then I send hours looking at the new releases or the Wilkerson Mill site to choose just the right ones.
This year it was Mini Pennys, that I bought locally. I knew Penny McHenry when I lived in Atlanta and I LOVED her and her gardens.

Problem: green peppers, container grown. Have harvested a few so far with the major part of the crop to start in one to two weeks. However, I have noted several that have grown to about one third normal harvest size have a large brown /black soft area on the blossom end. These peppers have grown normally and are not stunted for their age. It is as though for peppers which formed at a certain time they ended up with this 'stuff'. Those which are larger or smaller — no problem. I picked these mucked up peppers off as I did not have any idea of the problem. I always add lime when preparing the soil in spring. Any thoughts w/b appreciated.

Otherwise, I am awash in slicing tomatoes, cherry tomatoes and patio tomatoes. Still have one lonely zuke producing—the others beat the dust. Cukes are still producing albeit slowly and am about to plant two pots tomorrow for a fall crop.
