The Reaper And The Lady-Bird!

Hey everyone, how awesome is this contrast the bright red/orange with a tinge of black of this gorgeous aphid destroying lady bug and the lush green/yellow of the healthy Carolina reaper chilli plant?

Never before has a backside looked this good? These are common on my plants they really are aphid killers, these and wasps you want to see in your garden as they keep all the unwanted vegetable eating bugs away.

This gorgeous Carolina Reaper plant is around 3 months old. I am guessing/assuming that it will start to bear fruit in the next 2 months odd. I really cant wait to try it, the worlds hottest pepper, the fruit itself is rather large and very very mean, folks have died eating Carolina Reapers before so do proceed with CAUTION.

I have around 10 Reapers at the moment and trying to germinate more all the time. The seeds are very costly around R80 for 10 which is around $7 for ten seeds, Steep eh? What I am told however is once I have a few plants can sell them for top dollar. I shall be testing the market as soon as I have excess.

I was lucky enough to have purchased both Red and Yellow Carolina Reaper plants so come December odd hoping to have the fruit in both colours. Not sure why it is called a fruit, it should be called a Natural Stick Of DYNAMITE in my book. Hot as hell it certainly is, but equally as pretty.

As soon as she came she spread her wings just after the 'photoshoot' and left, off to slay more aphids on other plants!

Nature truly is awesome, I trust you have a super weekend.

I like spicy, but eating something that hot just because doesn't sound like a good thing to me!

Ain't that the truth brother!
