Grew from seed in 2011. Very hardy, 11 plants out of 12 plants survived to be planted and 10 survived in garden. Got many orange and green peppers from plants. Very Tasty. Could not find the seeds in the stores this year and had to order from Amazon. Will see how they do this year and will save my own seeds.

I only have 2 cents to offer. I grew one plant. I started it late in the season so that may be the reason I got very few peppers. The taste was delectable. The orange color was beautiful and the flesh was thick and crisp. No disease was apparent and it didn't fall over. Worth repeating.
