This is the biggest yield I ever had from a sweet pepper and I typically grow about 6 different varieties every year. It has a subtle, mild taste, but the skin didn't get tough like other varieties tend to do in our hot weather. I got more peppers from this one (container!) plant than almost all the other varieties combined, even though I used only minimal amounts of fertilizer. I will definitely grow this one again. |

Similiar to Gypsy, but smaller. Not a robust flavor, subtle. Fruit uniform, but quality seemed to have flaws. Yield may be sensitive to weather, I had a lot of them last year, very few 3 years ago. The ripe color was an intense red orange that was most attractive. Lots of comments on the beautiful color of the ripe peppers. |

good producer often having 6 to 8 peppers per plant. not overly flavorful but cooking helps. germinates well inside and transplants easily. freezes well for soups, meatloaf, casserole dishes. |

Have only grown in for two years. First year was very good. This year didn't get much of anything - but didn't get many peppers at all. Too wet. Too cold. I'm rating it at 3 stars because it is fun and different. |
