Christmas pepper colorful plant WEST LAFAYETTE — As an added holiday decoration or a grow-it-yourself plant for giftgiving, the Christmas pepper is worthy of your consideration. Scientifically known as Capsicum frutescens, the Christmas pepper is a colorful plant, usually readily available and reasonably priced during the yule season. Because of its bright red fruit, the plant blends easily with the holiday decor. Purchase the plant with the idea that you will discard it when its beauty has passed, suggests John A. Wott, Purdue university extension home environment horticulturist. This will come when the plant’s foliage and fruit have lost their attractiveness. To prolong its usefulness, give the plant as much bright light and cool temperatures (45-55 degree nights) as possible. If the plant is placed in warm, dry locations, the foliage will dry rapidly and the fruit will degenerate, says Wott. An occasional spray of water may help to keep it looking attractive. Miniature peppers can be dried for use as seasoning, but watch out. They are very hot. Individuals who would like to grow their own plants and perhaps give them as gifts next Christmas should gather seeds from this year’s ripe pods and store them until early spring, stresses Wott. Plant the seeds and grow as if you were starting annual flowers or vegetables. Eventually, transplant the seedlings into four or five-inch pots. Use a low nitrogen soil and fertilize sparingly. Place the pots in a sunny location, but be sure they do not dry out. An occasional pinching prior to July 1 will result in a better developed plant, says the horticulturist. Before a fall frost tring the plants indoors and grow at a night temperature of 55 to 60 degrees dR., with day temperatures five to tep degrees higher. v — .- - - With a little bit of luck, you’ll have plenty of pepper plants to give as Christmas gifts next year.

What nicer Christmas gift...

By MRS. ANN HANCOOK Area Extension Agent What nicer Christmas gift could there be than something you baked in your kitchen. It means so much to get a gift that you know the giver made especially for you. It is so easy to go out and buy a present; this year take the time to put a little bit of yourself into each gift. Holiday nut breads are especially nice for gift giving since they can be baked in unusual shapes and sizes. Quick breads are exactly what their name implies — quick. Yeast bread must be kneaded and allowed to rise but quick breads don’t. Baking powder and baking soda provide the leavening agent for quick breads so all you have to do is stir them up. There are several important principles involved in preparing a good quality product. As with any recipe, follow it very carefully. When the dry ingredients are added stir just enough to moisten the flour. Over mixing causes large air tunnels, poor texture, and small volume. Be sure and grease the pan for easy removal. After pouring the batter into the pan allow it to rest fifteen minutes before putting it into the oven. This gives the baking soda and powder time to begin working. After baking allow the bread to cool on a wire rack for ten minutes then remove from the pan and continue cooling. You will find that nut breads cut better after twenty-four hours. Or freeze them for unexpected guests during the holidays. Nut breads can be baked in loaf

pans, coffee cans, juice and soup cans. Be sure to oil the cans well so that the bread will be easy to remove. Always cool them completely out of the can or pan to prevent a steamed soggy product. To decorate nut breads for gift giving dribble some icing over the top and add some quartered red and green maraschino cherries. Make someone’s season merrier with something tasty from your oven. And don’t be alarmed if your nut bread cracks across the top, it’s typical! Start baking now for happy holidays.
