Default First Peppadew of the year.

Picked my first Peppadew today. Got about 30 seeds from it drying on a plate right now.
I don't know how to attach a pic on this site.

Ahhh but the proof of the 'pudding' is in the eating - what does it taste like?

Well........ It was crunchy. The taste was very good. The heat on it reminded me of a Jalapeno.

I grew them 2 years ago Tomato Addict. I wasn't impressed with the flavour. I thought it was more hype than anything else. I hope yours will be better than mine.
Be warned - now that you have said you have seeds you will get messages from all round the world as they don't seem to be available to buy on the market.
For what I got from the space they occupied I didn't grow them again - but it was interesting at the time.
