We grew peter peppers last year . . . a neighbor gave me some plants and I had no idea how descriptive the plant's name was. {grin}

My husband took one look at them and said, "No way am I going to eat that." {whimp} He usually takes some of our extra produce into the office to share, but left behind the peter peppers--worried about getting sued for sexual harrassment.

I've got mine started already. I wonder if the folks at the farmers market will notice or think they're just thinking 'dirty thoughts' LOL Last time I raised them they were pretty realistic and produced heavily. They come out more realistic if they are given plenty of room, the ones that were crowded together came out rather 'deformed' I started 60 plants so I will have plenty to sell. Isn't gardening fun??

You ladies sure are having fun with this.

If any one has the 'wherewithall' to develop a new tomato variety, name it 'Big Boobs' and it will be a guaranteed money maker.

Ha! My DH wont allow me to grow any Alamanders(sp) since I pointed out/and have nicknamed them "doggie dicks". I'd love to freak him out with a pepper patch ;~)

I had a friend from anatomy class quit eating puffed wheat cereal for similar reasons.

I gave some plants to a friend and didn't tell what they was. I ask her last winter how the peppers was and her face turned red.
