Yeah it certainly doesn't seem to be very popular, which is peculiar given all the time and effort on the part of Ms. Bailey to develop it out of Super Chili. I don't have a greenhouse yet so I figured it would produce enough hot peppers to be worthwhile in our short growing season.
It sure is a pretty plant, I wish I could take credit for how well they are doing! I broke all the rules, no soilless starting mix, no warming tray, I just soaked the seeds overnight and poked them into some Miracle Gro potting soil.
I will continue to monitor the plants and will provide an update later in the season for anybody else interested in growing 'Matchbox'
