The plants are blossoming now. In years past the first fruits dried up
and fell off for some strange reason. It wasn't until the plants were
about 30 inches high that peppers remained and grew. Never figured that
one out as my neighbor's plants had *large* peppers on plants not much
bigger than the peppers. Now for some reason my plants seem to be
producing earlier--even the ones w/o the matches. I still have to see
if the peppers stay on or if some will fall off as in the past.
