California Wonder Bell Pepper

These beauties were sliced and BBQ with a brisket! Last year our California Wonders produced maybe one undersized pepper. It was very disappointing. Their second year is yielding much more. These are the first to be harvested with more on the way! Our second year is turning out to be a great yield of peppers! Yea.

Something is Lurking in our Pepper Patch

Texas Brown Anole Lizard has been lurking around our pepper garden lately. We wrote about these last year and are really good for your garden. They love to eat insects and are able to help keep the numbers down on the flies.
