Careful When Selecting...

I quickly selected a bell pepper plant on a hurried trip to the nursery one day in August.  My selection has turned out to be quite a surprise.  I thought I was selecting a bell pepper plant which would turn "chocolate" or brownish in color when ripe.  My surprise is that it actually is a plant which produces miniature peppers.  I have already picked a few of the ripened peppers.  I thought the plant was finished for the season.  Then, my volunteer plant completely engulfed it.  This week while tidying up the garden, I discovered the plant is loaded with blossoms.  Again, if we get some sunny days (doubtful based on this year's sunny days to date), they might just produce a few more peppers.  The miniatures are darling and the color is lovely, by the way.

Thanks for visiting my California Garden! Funny when veggies try to set produce so late.
