Noted and thanks.

If Bonnies ever sent any shishito pepper plants to anybody but Walmart, I might actually catch them on sale. Amazon has the seeds, but they are pricey.

Supposedly farmers markets have these (the fruits) more often than in the past. That might be a possibility too - just save some seeds as you did. I’ve had pretty good luck planting those super-hot Thai peppers from saved seeds.

Seemingly oddly, some of the best germination plants I’ve tried to grow from seed were Roma tomato plants: They were in “Valley Green” seed packets that, as I recall, Menards had on sale for 10 cents per pack. The plants produced well too, until blight got them, late last summer.

I’m no expert tho’ — I have way more questions than questions answered!!
