Garden Tuesday ~ Peppers

Peppers

I love looking at all your harvest pictures on Garden Tuesday!  Since, I don’t vegetable garden, my harvest consists of herbs, flowers, and peppers.  I have discovered that peppers are about the only vegetable that I can grow.  I think this is because they are naturally pest free.  I don’t really have to do anything except water them.  My kind of vegetable!

These will become hot vinegar, some pickled peppers, and some just go straight into the freezer for winter hotness!

Please join me for Garden Tuesday.

Winter hotness. That's what I need in my life. I might be moving in with you and your peppers.

I didn't realize peppers were so easy to grow. Maybe next year I'll try some. Our tomatoes didn't do well except for some yellow pear-shaped ones. Thank goodness for Farmer's Markets.

(I think this is because they are naturally pest free.) Yes, that is what I thought until last week when I found two of those ugly green worms on them! I was shocked! I have never seen them eat pepper plants before. One even nibbled on a pepper. Your peppers are beautiful and healthy lookin'.

Sounds like my garden, with the addition of tomatoes. I have a similar bowl of pepper to put up for the winter.

Hi Pam,

Your peppers look delicious! I don't have a vegetable garden right now, but hope you don't mind me joining you with some flower pictures. Have a great week!

Lovely peppers!

I have some Kung Pao peppers that I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with them....now I know! Thanks!

Yeah, peppers - a vegetable! Just teasing! Yes, they are super simple to grow. I don't know anything that likes to eat them, other than humans. Beans are easy, too. Maybe next year?

Gosh! Me and technology are on the outs today! As you can see from my tab. Oh well. I'll do better next time. (I hope!) ;-)

Your peppers look fab! Can't wait to see what you do with them.

Beautiful!

Mmm Peppers! My favourite vegetable too. Never knew they were easy to grow. Perhaps the northern UK climate is not the best?

We love peppers! Luckily my friend planted Jalapenos and gave me a bowl full. I forgot to plant them this year! I was busy planting tomatoes!

I wish I had better luck with my peppers. Everything is so late here this year.

Suzanne said...

Your peppers look lovely -- so colorful and beautiful -- and, I'm sure, tasty!

Those red ones look so spicy!

Mary Ellen said...

My peppers didn't do anything this year but I am pulling rutabaga and zucchini along with a full tomatoes here and there!

Dorothy said...

Great looking peppers!!!

Chris said...

Gorgeous photograph, I LOVE the composition and the weathered bowl is perfect.

Our jalapenos and cayenne did well this year too.

I am so sorry that I missed your garden linky party! I've become so far behind in my blog reading and commenting (work has just gotten the most time out of me since my semester has begun). I was going to share my stuffed peppers, but will do so next week if my brain remembers. If you have a recipe or 2 that you'd like to share on my weekend linky, please stop by. ONce again, my apologies for not making it in time. Off to read the other recipes though!
