Any chance you'd be willing to share some seeds once it produces?  I've had orange manzanos in the past and they were great, but have had a heckuva time getting the manzano seeds I have to germinate the past year or so.
Sure thing. I actually have some already. PM me your address.

Ripped the adopted Manzano out of the dwc bucket and threw it into one of the containers with the other over winters. This plant is unstoppable.

Reminds me of a plant I had a few years back that I gave away.
It was a lot bigger though.
A guy drove here from Arizona to take it home.
It filled the back of his Vehicle.(after trimming it down a little.)
 
I give all my plants away when I'm done with them...
 
I was worried about the State Ag. guys taking it from him at a check point.
 
He said the check point had nobody there when he went through.
 
Lost touch with the guy.
But he said it was kicking out pods at the time.
 
I used to pick about 60 pods at a time from it a day in the Spring and fall-we don't have a winter here.
 
It was grown in Southern Exposure it's whole life.(lots of 100 degree days).
In a 30 gal. pot.
Root room is what Pubes need,roots get hot,buds drop...
 
Trying to do a mostly Manzano/Rocoto grow this year.
Going to grow C.Cardanansii  between the Pubes.
 
Smoked Manzano/Rocoto Powder ROCKS!
 
I love seeing people that have the same attitude as me about giving plants away instead of sending them to the dumpster.
 
The Pepper Gods will bring you great Karma I'm sure.

Nice !!! I always loved the flavor of these peppers. It was a treat being able to have fresh pods during the winter as well.
The original seeds came from a fellow member here. I believe he bought the peppers at a market near his home in Poway Ca.
 
It's good to see the generations live on !!!
