The garden is starting to move along some, slowly but surely.     It should be a fun season!!   Hope everyone is doing great.  A few different 'Rocopica' types I'm growing this season.

Hi Chris, beautifull flowers.

Do you have some pics of the plant Rocoto Arequipa Giant X C.cardenasii?

 

 

I saw this picture of a cross, was it done by you?

Do you have some pics of the flower?

C.chinense X C.baccatum

Due varietà di nostra conoscienza, per chi non lo sapesse il Bih Jolokia Light Green è quello della Frontal Agritech ed è l'equivalente del Bih Jolokia #1 di Lonewolf.

Non so se sono più curioso di vedere il fiore di questo ibrido interspecifico o assaporarne l'aroma.

I will take a photo of the plant you asked and post soon.   All varieties starting with CMPCR### are my own personal crosses I have made. It's my 'coding' to keep track of projects.  Not all 'attempts' were successful with germination over the years.

Hi Chris, are these "soft" fruits?

From this image of the fruits without a calix, it would seem so and the size of the fruit is also quite small, how many inces approximately?

 

Cumari Alongado and Cumari Flibu are among my absolute favorites, fabulous flowers.

[cmpman1974 504]

Yes, they are soft fruits that fall right off the calyx.  I would estimate the size to be 5-10x the size of a normal USDA cardenasii pod (those are quite small).  Unfortunately, I'm not growing the true cardenasii this season to provide a pod size reference.   I'll measure one of these pods soon.

Thanks, in reality more than the exact size of the fruit, I'm more interested in the shape and color of the seeds of your cross, is it a F1 right?

[cmpman1974 504]

Oban, here's the photo of the seeds of the CMPCR078 F1 fruits.

Thanks, I really appreciate it.

The ruler has returned in my photos.   I like it too much as it provides a real-life scale for what I'm growing and comparisons year after year.

 

 

 

 

 

This red version below is an off pheno I'm not focusing on.  I'm working on a yellow strain that points up that ripens deep purple to yellow with dark foliage.

 

[RocotoD 747]

Very beautiful and strange fruits!

You must measure in cm. We aren't in the U.S.A. !!!! 

[cmpman1974 504]

Slowly some varieties begin to ripen here.   Always an exciting time in the garden!

[cmpman1974 504]

I decided to grow some of the 'classics' this year from past seasons.
