Pretty Peppers

Aren't these just beautiful? Oh! Who would have told me five years ago that I'd be sitting here taking pictures of peppers...I never would have believed it. Here is batch #2 of our pretty peppers.

I had to get this shot here (above) to let you know of all of the varieties that we are growing because it's hard to tell in the baskets. You see the greens, the yellows, oranges and reds but you can't really point out what's there (with the exception of the little cayennes). So here goes, when you're looking at this picture above, the top two red & green ones are: ancient sweets, then we've got three types of bells coming across the top. You can tell those pretty well. Then down beneath those (the skinny ones) are the long and short cayennes, then on your bottom left, you've got the hungarian (paprika) peppers and on the right are red jalapenos (green and red jalapenos are basically the same, just one's (the reds) are riper than the other (the green ones).

Our tomatoes are pretty much done for the season, we've got a few heirloom and cherokee that are trying to make a comeback before the frost hits. But other than that, we're pretty much all herbs and peppers, ridin' out the rest of the season!
