    I think if you grow them from seeds its plant jan/feb indoors and then you move them outdoors around July time...not sure about plants though - could you ring the local garden centre and ask?

    Ooo and wiki says peppadew is a type of mini pepper from South American that looks a bit like a tomato and is sweet :D

    Sammy get down to your Garden Center now..I went the other day and there were loads that were reduced and all had chillis on them from this year! You can grow them from seed and they are really really easy to grow. Keep inside until you have a good plant but you will need to place outside to pollinate and produce chillis :)

    Only another 6lbs to loose Sammy and have bought 6 more weeks and thats it..I will pay no more so have got to be good for 6 more weeks. Am imaging myself in my bargain skirt bought from ebay and some boots that slipped into my basket on Boden website last night (they were childrens and have 15% off to bargain really )

    Practical and hoping they will go with some nice skinny jeans (when my !!!! and thighs are a little smaller)

    Sammy they had chilli and pepper plants in our local Wilkinsons.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
