If you mean one that will be primarily for functional use (as an ingredient, that is), then maybe Yes. Cayenne is a very well-known and dependable variety. But I will always want to grow lots of different varieties.Mark Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04558305122821209520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-4326950211241967282015-06-14T02:18:03.881+01:002015-06-14T02:18:03.881+01:00Fresh new growth is a great sign!

In fact they are just about hanging on to life out on the allotment because of the cold nights we are still having - lots of black bits on the leaves a sure sign of the cold.Spade and Daggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03447641240079673493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-76359682068071539222015-06-13T16:55:49.670+01:002015-06-13T16:55:49.670+01:00It's such a shame to see the plants like this,...It's such a shame to see the plants like this, even more so as your plants are always so healthy looking usually.
