Peppers

Peppers and Fruits, to be exact.

The medium green items  and the orange in the upper left are Habaneros. Hm, good but really spicy. The small red items are Chile Piquin and Chile Tipin, both pretty hot, some more, some less.
The big green items are not really ripe Pineapple Guavas - delicious in juices, but also just fresh. Once ripe I know them yellow, but these are edible already. And the one really yellow item in the lower right is a Meiwa Kumquat.

Pineapple Guava

Even before the most welcome rain - we're having a bunch of flowers on our pineapple guava bushes!
We got two cuttings two years ago from the MUD community center - they had a welcome party for everyone who moved in. And they offered these cuttings. We just stuck two in the soil, and now 2 years later the first flowers, and the bushes are still small and super low maintenance.

The flowers are pretty (and edible I have read but not tried) - and I hope to get a few fruit. They are delicious in shakes, I love a blend of a few of these with orange juice - yum.
