Yeah, I love that one, too! Also Machiaw, a hybrid, from Johnny's. And
several from Wilhite's that are listed under Indian Subcontinent
vegetables. If you can get customers to try the green ones (When will
these be ripe?) they will come back for more. Baker Creek Heirloom
Seeds in Mansfield, MO, has dozens (?) of varieties, including tiny
green ones from Thailand. But I think Machiaw is probably my overall
favorite, and sells the fastest for me. It is the same color as Neon,
which is another of my favorites.

Steve,

That cultural aspect to the supervisor employee relationship is very
important to note with Mexicans. If you're the boss, you're the boss.

LOL, we gringos could take some lessons in respect there, I think.
