And I'm glad you liked it. It was one of my varieties that I was on the fence about due to the wet weather I had. I want to try it again now. |
The name is a bit baffling, I agree. Purple Nips is appropriate. Definitely give it another shot.

I just sowed some seeds last week but I'm gonna have to rethink my timing next season. I might start in late fall. My winters are mild but not as warm as your area but I think they could survive. Worth a try. |
The bigger ones sprouted way back in the middle of november. December was a bit unkind with the cold. No supplemental heat or lights, just what they get from the sun. For next winter I'll be sowing some cold tolerant varieties in sep to time it just right.

It seems about right.

Your bearings are correct, just the location is a bit off. These will help.
