seeing red

http://www.alexareynolds.com/garden09/redfruit2.jpgI bought this capsicum plant as a seedling, it seems like forever ago.  When I first bought it it already had two little fruits.  But it's taken up until now before they've finally started to ripen!  The cool spring and early summer surely didn't help ... in fact it wasn't until this week's hot spell that they perked up.  But looky looky, not long now until they're ready!

there are a few more little fruits on the top of the plant, I hope they don't take as long to ripen as these ones did!

Oh and no, I didn't wear nail polish just to match the capsicum.  I mean ... of course I did.  I'm that coordinated.
