IN JULY OF 2010, WHILE I WAS AWAY ON PERSONAL BUSINESS, THE AIR CONDITIONING FAILED AND TEMPERATURES IN MY SEED STORAGE AREA ROSE SO HIGH THAT MANY SEED VARIETIES MAY NOT BE VIABLE.
I HAVE NOT DECIDED WHETHER THE BUSINESS WILL CONTINUE. IF I DO CONTINUE, I WILL BE OFFERING FEWER VARIETIES FOR SALE. I HAVE NEVER GROWN CHILES FOR SEED AND MANY OF MY RELIABLE SEED SUPPLIERS HAVE MERGED OR GONE OUT OF BUSINESS AND I'M AFRAID SOME VARIETIES ARE LOST FOREVER.
AT THE SAME TIME, COMPETITION HAS INCREASED. UNFORTUNATELY, MANY OF THOSE SELLING SEEDS ON THE INTERNET ARE GROWERS WHO ARE EITHER CLUELESS ABOUT CROSS-POLLINATION OR UNSCRUPULOUS, OR BOTH.
IF I DECIDE TO CONTINUE, I WILL HAVE MY SEEDS TESTED FOR GERMINATION BY THE NEW MEXICO AGRICULTURE AUTHORITIES AND COME BACK WITH A BETTER WEBSITE AND IMPROVED COMMERCE CAPABILITIES.
I HAVE DISABLED THE ORDERING LINK BUT WILL LEAVE MUCH OF THE WEBSITE UP BECAUSE SOME OF THE INFORMATION MAY BE OF INTEREST OR VALUE TO SOME OF YOU.

In the United States and Mexico it's spelled Chile. In the United Kingdom and many other english speaking countries it's spelled Chilli. It should never be spelled Chili because that's a concoction of meats, spices, secret sauces and sometimes even beans. So if you like Chiles or Chillies, please check out our web site.
TLCC sold seeds for several varieties of the HABANERO Chile Pepper, the hottest commercially grown Chile. One variety of HABANERO is pictured above. The other image is of SCOTCH BONNET CHILES which was taken by Jim Campbell of Mild to Wild Herb and Pepper Co. when we were assisting the Jamaica Agriculture Development Foundation. The photos show the distinct shape of each.
TLCC offered many HOT, INTERESTING. and RARE Seeds
TLCC offered Seed Collections at substantial savings!
