Starting a Dutch bucket rocoto forest in my greenhouse. 😅
Giant Reds, Giant Yellows, Costa Rican, Aji Largo, Farm Locoto, and a couple of Rocoto Reisen. (also 2 datils, 2 corno di torro, and 2 tabasco) 32 total

Picked a few from the forest. 3 giant yellow rocotos, a huge corno di toro, some ripe bananas, and some oddball red peppers that came from a plant grown from datil seeds saved form last year.
 
@Crazy Monkey Nice pickins CM. The Yellow Rocotos look nice. What did you think of the taste?
 
A couple of updated shots. The greenhouse is 20ft wide and the forest has taken over more than 1/2 of that. Not much room to maneuver. Definitely have to rethink spacing next season. ðŸĪŠ I have 2 rows of 16 buckets spaced 18" center-to-center. May remove every-other bucket to give some more growing room.
