What do I do now? Suggestions and experiences with pollination methods for indoor chilli plants are more than welcome.

If you grow any citrus at all, grow this one.
If you grow any citrus at all, grow this one.
Citrus obovata, Fukushu kumquat
Cold hardy to 28F/-2C, can be grown in a pot. Fruits 4-5 yrs from seed.
It’s the fruit that makes it so special. The peel is very sweet and chewy and the fruit inside balances it with a nice tartness. And bc you eat fruit+peel, it’s very nutritious.
I sell seedlings for $15 plus shipping available in early spring. Open to reservations now.

UPDATE: Solanum abutiloides
Winter didn’t kill this perennial even though it dipped below freezing. The fruits grown from seed are highly variable and mine taste like sugary battery acid.
Well, it’s fruiting this summer and I was letting the birds have it (even they rejected it). The berries ripened until they fell off the plant. I tried the fallen berries and there is almost no caustic taste. Yay?

Every part of this plant is edible if the bunnies don’t beat you to it. 🐰

They were intercropped with Solanum corymbiflora (seen in the background) and that kept the bunnies away. This Solanum “hardy tamarillo” is supposedly cold hardy to 15F/-9C and lives for 12 years.
