Calling All Growers! What are your "Top Ten?"

TheJollyRancher

I am moving to an apartment soon and started thinking about the fact that I will only have enough room for about 10 or so pots on the patio to grow my chiles... If you only had room for 10 chile plants what would they be?

All different?
All of the same?
Half and Half?
All superburners?
A mix of hot and mild?

I guess it would boil down to what you would use the most right?

I have seed for about 30+ varieties...and more on the way...

Lets hear your top 10 and I will try to formulate mine...
