YES, I HAVE PLENTY OF SEEDS FOR THE 2012 SEASON.
UPDATED MARCH 10, 2012.
FOR YEARS, THE DATIL PEPPER HAS BEEN THE TRADITIONAL PEPPER OF MY HOME TOWN, ST. AUGUSTINE, FLORIDA.
WE ST.AUGUSTINIANS ARE FOND OF SAYING, "DATILS ONLY GROW HERE", BUT THAT'S A MYTH.
THEY WILL GROW ANYWHERE THAT YOU CAN GIVE THEM GOOD PEPPER GROWING CONDITIONS ... WARM DAYS, NO FROSTS, NOT TOO MUCH FERTILIZER, AND WARM, BUT NOT TOO HOT EVENINGS.
START AND GROW THEM THE SAME WAY YOU WOULD ANY VARIETY OF PEPPER. THERE ARE TONS OF WEBSITES WITH INFORMATION ON STARTING PEPPERS AND OTHER VEGGIES, SO JUST GOOGLE IT IF YOU HAVEN'T DONE THIS BEFORE.

| A BIG DATIL. THEY ARE SMALL AS PEPPERS GO, NOT TINY, BUT SMALLER THAN JALPAPENOS AND THE SURFACE IS NOT SMOOTH. THE ARE SIMILAR IN HEAT TO HABENERO'S BUT HAVE GREAT FLAVOR. |
