Default Re: What did you kill today?

The Dwarf Reds are tough for me, too. That combination of being slow and sensitive to cold makes it hard to get good fruit from them in my climate. Either they fruit after most of the leaves have been damaged over winter, so they have little in the way of solar panels to produce carbohydrates to fill the fruit, or they fruit around now, and then the bunch hangs over winter, which doesn't work out well. But they are pretty plants.
