You would think that after being reported for over two years that they must realize that they are a

laughing stock in gardening forums,tease.gif

 

A number of other scam listings  are still available in the Rose category,stubborn_smiley_by_mirz123-d4bt0te_zps12f1a5a3.gif

Re: It started as one.

i am afraid i am old school were peaches are round watermelon is red carrots are orange cauliflower is white, 

the donut peaches might taste alright but so do the normal ones ,    but you cant beat coming from your own tree,  and tomatoes from your own plants.

They are genuine Chillies and can be eaten.

 

Bolivian Rainbow Chili:

 

Flavour wise: Crunchy and very seedy, crisp fresh taste with a slight tang/salty flavour, not very pronounced and light, quiet nice actually.

 

 

Heat level: Medium heat.

Re: It started as one.

Actually old school is many coloured watermelons and carrots, well, most veggies. It is only from after WW2 that supermarkets started selling only one type of most veg for their own convenience and then people got used to only being able to buy that one, and the many other coloured varieties got left by the wayside.

Most people don't realise how restriced they are when they go to the supermarket. - Oh, and donut peaches are well over 100 years old and were very popular so they are nowhere near new.
