This winter I came across a container of Figaro Sweet Italian Pimento
seed that I had saved, with out any care, ten years ago.  They had been
prepared and stored carelessly. Still had chunks of flesh attached and
I remember that they were only air dried and tossed in the container.

I planted three cells of them heavily, expecting no results, but came
up with roughly 50% germination.

Kind of a gift from the past Charlie to the future Charlie.  It is a
very thick walled, large sweet pimiento.  Got the original from
Shepherd's Seeds in '97.

Care
