This is one of the most reliable producers of red peppers for me. I've tried many - probably 30 or so. We have cool nights and hot dry days. Keep picked for the most production.

St. Joseph, Indiana, United States

Soil Texture: Loam
Garden Size: Small - Less than 400 square feet (20' x 20')
Sun Exposure: 6 to 8 hours per day

I have tried this variety for about 3 years in Northern Indiana. I have not been able to get it to produce peppers consistently. The few peppers I get are pretty good, but the plants never get big enough to hold many peppers. They would probably be better in areas with a longer season.
