Quotethe capsicums look good TeeGee, can you tell us the variety?

The carrot shaped ones are a spanish variety named Largo.

The bulbous ones are my own seed originating from a pepper I bought in Spain a few years ago.

The long Chillis are Anaheim ( a freeby packet) Jalapeno is the squat one and the small ones are Bulgarian Carrot from a few seeds I was given.

Everything looks wonderful TeeGee!
How do you store your cauli's? Being nosey really as my 1st attempts this year weren't that successful, so being an optimist I thought I'd ask  :D

Usually I don't bother saving them!

For instance the three above will be allocated to ourselves my daughter and son and their families so very little chance of saving them!

But if I did I would freeze them!
