    I'm a first-timer here.

    My name is Bob and I live in Panama City with my wife Gwen and we have 3 sons.

    Both of us love to garden. I have a small vegetable garden - peppers and tomatoes. Although I enjoy just growing stuff, my passion is peppers. Mostly unusual varieties that you don't get from Home Depot.

    I'm excited about being here and look forward to learning from all of you!

    Hu there Bob it's lovely yo have you join us here at GardeStew. :-D We have a plant and seed exchange forum that you might find useful for swapping pepper seeds.

    We're basking in a heat wave here in Scotland at the moment so everything in the garden is growing well. However, a bit of rain would certainly help me out and save me having to water the garden so often!! Really looking forward to getting to know you better. :D

    Hi Bob, welcome to the Stew from north Texas. There are several hot pepper lovers hanging around here.

    I am not one of them, I see no earthly purpose in eating something so hot it cauterizes your taste buds, takes your breath away and causes heart palpatations. :-D :-D My husband has given up trying to convert me, finally.

    Hi, Bob;
    Welcome to the Stew from another Floridian. Yep, you'll like it here and yes, you'll find some folks who'll be interested in seed swapping for those peppers.
