Wednesday Nite @ the Lab Schedule
September 8 - The History and Evolution of Chili Peppers
Chili pepper plants are grown on almost every continent on Earth and have evolved to range in color, shape, size, sweetness, and heat level. Dr. Baumler, an avid chili pepper enthusiast, will provide an overview of the evolutionary and historical science behind these remarkable plants. 2010 is proving to be a great year for growing chili pepper plants in Wisconsin, and Dr. Baumler will guide you through a descriptive photo journey of his personal collection of over 70 varieties including some of the most ancestral and hottest in the world.
