Good single lobed peppers with lots of flavor. In my experience they're the first peppers to show whitefly damage, It's easy to make paprika from these (as the name would imply). Just leave them on the plants until they dry, then remove the seeds for next years crop and run the dried flesh thru a coffee grinder. Obviously you could harvest the ripe but still wet peppers and use a dehydrator. Either way the results are better than storebought paprika
