You would think this chilli bush would have wilted with the cold weather we have been getting, but no. I have been picking this hot bird's eye chillies when required rather than have them sitting in the fridge. There are green chillies waiting to ripen. The bush is a splash of colours, starting with the very young fruit starting as shiny black and then turning green as it gets bigger and finally the fiery red. I hope this bush will keep me in chillies through the winter months.
What could be nicer than stir-fried bok choi, freshly picked? I grew these bok choi from seedlings as I was too lazy to start from seeds. They have been doing very well and I have to remember to purchase more seedlings. Bok choi self sow quite easily and I have found a few seedlings coming up from seeds from the previous season. I had left a couple of plants to go to seed and did not get around to collecting the seeds and they had looked after themselves.
