Part I Garden update - decorate plants and flowers

They aren't all edible, but some are (or if they are all edible, I was not aware of some). This is a rare update of our flowers and decorative plants. Hot peppers are included in this video because in our case they are being used as decorative potted plants on our front steps.
Also, instructions for killing slugs in your garden. I am sure it works better with beer, but we didn't have any beer on hand. This is the second time I've tried it with sugar, yeast and water - has not worked for me yet. I will need to go buy some beer. The slugs continue to eat the plants in my herb garden especially.

Are the blue peppers a hot pepper? They look so beautiful. I can grow the hot peppers but for some reason I have no luck with sweet peppers, I think maybe the climate here is too cool for them. Instead of large and sweet mine are small and bitter so I gave up.

@dalecalder2003 I haven't tried them myself yet, but I have read that they are a hot chili pepper. They turn red eventually and then it is time to eat them. You don't eat them while they are still purple.

@GettingThereGreen NIce!

@jihadacadien apparently the purple peppers will turn red eventually and when they are red, they are ready to eat.
