Here’s the official Peppermeister grow list for 2012. I’m growing approximately 32 types of peppers, and several other plants, including a ton of herbs, tomatoes and peas.
I wanted to grow a little bit of everything this year, so my chiles range from the sweetest frying pepper to the hottest of the super hots. I made sure to have several chiles that are best when picked green, red, orange, yellow, and even purple! Along with the variety of colors I’ve chosen, this summer’s garden will feature peppers from all over the world. Chiles from Mexico, Brazil, Peru, Poland, India, Thailand, Italy, Jamaica, Bolivia, and of course the good ol’ USA will be featured this summer.
This year’s pepper garden will combine plants that were started as seeds, plants that were purchased as seedlings and even a few plants that I over-wintered. If you want to get more information about any of these chiles, try The Chileman Database or Chileplants.com.

That is an awesome list; a little bit of everything. I’m growing out the B.A. Cayenne you sent me, thanks again. I’m having mixed results with my pepper starts, some are getting eaten by animals when I put them out. There are two varieties I’m growing multiples of to make sure I am able to save seed: Blondie and Maria Nagy. Blondie is similar to Lemon Drop, but white and was hard for me to find. Maria Nagy is a very vigorous cayenne saved by a lady in Transylvania. If you like, I’ll send some seeds over at the end of the season.

That’s great, you should be pleased with the B.A. Cayenne, great for drying or homemade hotsauce. I try not to leave any plants outside overnight until Mother’s Day. I would definitely take some Nagy seeds! The more rare the better.

Wow, what a comprehensive list of chilli plants you are growing this year. We are waiting on news of possibly relocating for a 2 year contract so I have not planted anything!
Thanks again for stopping by my little spot in the blogosphere, leading me back here to your lovely blog.
