Hi from Sunny Scotland

Last year I did a capsicum pubescens trial outside in my garden idea being to find a variety that would ripen outside here in Scotland.........
Only one of the 6 or 7 varieties I tried with succeeded the Rocoto long from seaspring seeds (Dorset Naga people) it's very very similar to Aji Largo and I included that in my trial too however the Rocoto long won

This year it the only only I'm growing......however the weather has been particularly poor this year and they are well behind.
This year I've one in a cage (normally I use cane frame) and the other I've kind of let go native

in the added protection of my log store due to the poor spring/summer .
I've fell in love with the variety/ family of chillies it's colours, texture, even its sprawling growth habits, although definitely recommend a cage or frame with loaded with there heavy fruit ! particularly love the texture, flavour and heat
Took a few pics yesterday for my mate ..............
Rocoto long thriving in the shelter of my logs store
Fruit this season is "way" behind last season they were twice the size and im pretty sure I'd even had a few ripe pod's !
This variety is now firmly on my Favourite list now I find it very enjoyable to grow
And whilst "very" similar to Aji Largo not the same possibly they are a selection from the original variety.
