In 2012, a butcher in a local shop gave me two pods from his stock. They were slender orange or red pods (dried) which he said he had grown from pods brought to him by a friend from Asia. The two pods were full of seeds and I have grown plants from them for the last three years. They produced a pod much like a Thai Orange; a bright green when unripe, ripening to a light orange. My butcher friend said that in forty plus years of making sausage, these were his favorite for spice. Flavorful and spicy. I agree.
Well, the seeds are about gone now. I probably have a dozen left from the original 2012 gift. But this past year, I grew and isolated a plant from the original seeds given to me. No way to know for sure if these seeds are true or if they hybridized, but the plant was really, really isolated! I have some packets of seeds from this plant now and I'll be happy to share them. The only thing I ask is for feedback on the plants this coming season. Of course I'll be planting some too.
PM me with your United States mailing address and I'll mail the seed packets to you. I'll be eager to see what I get from mine and what you get from yours!
