We had a thread about weird garden plants a few years ago where a member told us about their Penis Peppers. Can you find this thread? I can’t.

That is a thread on the topic, but not the one I was looking for. This one would be about weird plants in gardens, and from about 2005 to 2007. The thread has a doper that was growing them. I posted in the thread too.

Thanks for your effort needscoffee.
