The dark Purple Beauty Pepper is impressive. I tried, without success, to grown them last year. Not sure what went wrong; all the other peppers were fine. Seeing yours makes me think that I should try them again. ---

It’s so exciting to see this beautiful bounty started from seed. Maybe this winter we should have a seed start photo exhibition. Without a greenhouse, we commandeer a corner of the guest room (not an issue this past spring…) ---

Nice arrangement Connie. Do you have much of a problem with Blossom End Rot this year,especially on the paste-type tomatoes? ---

I have more blossom end rot this year. Interestingly enough it is on my cherry tomatoes rather than the larger tomatoes. None so far on the Amish Paste or Caiman. ---

Surprisingly I haven’t had any so far but have had an issue with sun scald on my earliest ripening paste. I think removing bottom leaves right around the time we had intense sun wasn’t a good idea. ---

I am growing it in a container under a plastic greenhouse. First time growing this variety and very pleased. ![image](https://forum.comoxvalleyhortsociety.ca/uploads/default/original/1X/7462b39e1cd078cc9d0afa7732326d4602b82184.jpeg) ---
