Comments:

2023	These did wonderfully for me this year, I got so many fruit I completely lost count. Nice hot but fruity flavour, I also pickled them and they have an awesome flavour for that too. They were my first hot to mature, and kept going until frost. This one is going to go into the regular rotation for me, probably one of my all time favourite hot peppers.
2019	Nice hot flavour, tons of flowers but was too late to harvest a lot of them so I saved what I could. Even got to eat a few before the frost killed the plant - nice hot but kind of sweet flavour. If I can figure how to grow this one in my short season it'd be amazing.
2018	Plant was just starting to come to fruit as we were hit with an early, heavy snow. Managed to save the plant, and will overwinter indoors for 2019.
