Description

This is a large pepper that is very sweet with no heat and an excellent alternative to the bell pepper. It can be stuffed, grilled or used in salads. The flesh is very thick and juicy. The plant likes full sun and the pepper will grow from green to very dark and then lighten to a brilliant red. The plant itself is small, about 2 feet in height, compared to the size of fruit which can be much larger than your open hand, so you need to limit the number of peppers on the plant or give them lots of support. Allow them to mature on the vine for maximum sweetness and flavor.
