one more question i have noticed many people saying to avoid reimers why? probably should be another thread but since it was mentioned here i figured why not ask. and thanks again potawie just got your pm
you should also upload that picture to daves garden blows theirs away http://davesgarden.com/pf/go/119446/
 
Reimers are a company that does not know what a hole in the ground from their elbow on most things. They send you seeds that are mixed with other seeds and they mislabel EVERYTHING. Their customer service sucks and they don't really answer emails.

I sent 2 pics of 5-color to Reimers last year for 2 packs of seeds and they still haven't used them. As for Reimer's problems, my list keeps growing. They really did help get me started on finding new varieties in the beginning but they are so unorganized that you can't rely on anything they send to be what they say it is, or even germinate. They also don't seem to answer questions or complaints and as far as I can tell they rip off other peoples Trademarked varieties (ie.White Ammo Hab Tm.) and call it their own(White Bullet Hab Tm.) They are really getting known for their few mystery seeds in with every pack. Avoid the hassles, Seed Saving and Trading is the best way to go.
 
Any ideas where these are available online to purchase??

Ideally in Australia or somewhere that ships to here ??

They are one great looking plant and would love to add them to my small collection of seeds for growing in the coming season
 
Its funny reading back on these old threads.
How did the seeds turn out Naganero. We haven't heard from you since I sent you the seeds but I guess that can happen when you get married :cool:
 
im trying to grow chinese five color peppers. i got my seeds on e bay its over four weeks and zero germination. im bummed out. i think i got beat seeds they are at 82 degrees and half in paper twels in a zip lock the other 12 in soil.

med to size plant very proligic ornamental with ok flavor, fruit changes from cream to purple to yellow to orange and then red, each piece of fruit will be differant colors at differant times so you will have an intermingling of color going on has purple spashed leaves, genus Chinense is related to habaneros a very beautiful plant that will get peoples attention

hope this helps
