Grow
Gypsy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We have been gay, going our way
Life has been beautiful, we have been young
After you've gone, life will go on
Like an old song we have sung

When I grow too old to dream
I'll have you to remember
When I grow too old to dream
Your love will live in my heart
So, kiss me my sweet
And so let us part

And when I grow too old to dream
That kiss will live in my heart
And when I grow too old to dream
That kiss will live in my heart

So, kiss me my sweet
And so let us part




And when I grow too old to dream
That kiss will live in my heart

Are the seeds good for seed saving. They say they are heirloom/hybrid. Will you get the same pepper true to original plant. I haven’t been able to find information in this. Thank you

@Jodie41202

hey there - I thought they were supposed to be red/orange before picking. Mine look just as yours and I haven't picked yet. Do they ripen off the plant?

@Blue-qi6ec

What I have found they are delicious at any stage of development. They should change colors faster as the season progress with the heat from summer.

@marthamacdonald9828

They are better when allowed to ripen red

@heleneggleston6731

Never saw those seeds before
So where can I get them???

@Blue-qi6ec

Hello, thanks for commenting on our video. I get them at a local nursery here in Louisiana. I found seeds on several different sites on the internet.
