I ordered the seeds in 2022, for planting in 2023. Sandia was so generous with the amount of seeds I received in the packet, twice the amount I was expecting. The germination was 100%, and wow! The amount of peppers I got from 10 plants was incredible, especially for our northern climate! I had lots to give away. Mostly I dehydrated them when they ripened and turned them into pepper flakes, (just the aroma of them makes my day!) but I also stored some dried peppers in vacuum sealed jars. Those plants kept on producing heavily until the frost finally killed them. I still have many seeds left, and have planted again this year. Still germinating perfectly! I can't recommend them highly enough!
