Flavours of the Caribbean (Mainly)

Thought it was about time I put on blog on here as requested by a good friend Gary (wind chicken).
I got to know Gary having done a seed trade over 2 years ago via fb, and have always admired his growing.
As title says most of my grow will be bonnets as I love Caribbean cuisine especially Jerk chicken, curry goat etc.

I started some rocotos quite early as I know they take forever to ripen..

First time I've ever grown rocoto and pleased with progress so far.

The rocoto,s are red rocoto, tropical orange f3, and De seda.

Will make a proper grow list when I receive the p.dreadie select seeds kindly sent by Gary and one I'm pleased to have as a memory to Erin.

Another one already up and waiting to be potted on is Carrot Jolokia which I was kindly sent by Ben (bpiela), took ages to sprout a hook, but got one in the end.

Just waiting on a few stubborn bonnets to show hooks before finalizing what's a keeper.

Hey, buddy...  Are you sure this is a Fatali? 
 
Never seen one like that.  Usually pointy and yellow/orange,
up to about 3" (about 7-8 cm) in length.

I'm definitely curious what the Fatality tastes like. I grew a Butch T. plant a few years ago but didn't like the flavor... floral notes over burnt plastic... yuck! If crossing with a Fatali improves the flavor and retains the heat, I'd be interested in a seed swap if you're up for it Sim.
