6. There's a local grower who does indoor herb starts in 2" pots in the Fall for just this purpose.

That was part of what gave me the idea. So I'll probably try those, and do my best to overwinter the lemongrass indoors as well. It's chancy, I know. Some years it's worked, some not.

The hot peppers are a good idea, especially if I can dry and flake them-- we don't like very hot food but just a few flakes of a hot pepper are enough to "wake up" some dishes.

cordially,
Bright
