Yes, I still have Datil seeds, but the supply is dwindling. These are seeds for 2023 and the information below is still accurate.
PRICE UPDATE JANUARY 3, 2023:
Hey true Datil lovers, I have sold my real Datil seeds here for over 10 years and NEVER raised the price.
Unfortunately, the rise in postage rates has not stopped, nor has the price of envelopes, etc.
The price for one pack of seeds (30-35 seeds), postage included, is now $6.00. That includes an informational letter with recipes and growing instructions, plus shipping.
I STILL HAVE 2022 DATIL SEEDS FOR 2023 PLANTING.
THE PACKETS WILL CONTAIN 30+ SUPER FRESH 2022 SEEDS.
THE PRICE IS $6.00 FOR 30+ REAL DATIL PEPPER SEEDS AND A PAIR OF SAUCE RECIPES.
THERE ARE 2 WAYS TO ORDER:
1) YOU MAY PAY ONLINE USING PAYPAL. My PayPal account is natcoast@msn.com.
My best email address is: raymondpowersfc@gmail.com
2) MAIL $6.00 TO:

| I GROW NO OTHER PEPPER VARIETIES AND I ONLY CHOOSE RIPE DATIL PEPPERS FOR SEED SALES. |
PLEASE NOTE, THESE ARE THE REAL DATIL. THE SEEDS I SELL ARE THE DATILS PASSED FROM MY GRANDFATHER TO MY DAD AND THEN TO ME.
ALSO, I GROW THEM IN ISOLATION FROM ANY OTHER PEPPER VARIETIES TO AVOID ANY CHANCE OF CROSS-POLLINATION.
MINE ARE 100% ST. AUGUSTINE ORIGIN DATILS.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE FOLLOWING IS A BIT OF HISTORY AND TIPS ON GROWING DATIL PEPPERS.
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.

DATIL PEPPERS. THE ORANGE PEPPER IS FULLY RIPE, BUT THE GREEN ONES ARE READY FOR USE.
THE PURPLE COLORATION IS COMMON, BUT NOT PRESENT ON EVERY PEPPER.

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