In my location (high desert southwest) these have proven to be the most productive and reliable bells I've tried - by a significant margin. True of other gardeners in this area too. Good taste, and less prone to sunscald than some others. |

I tried these peppers because they are allegedly good for short seasons in the north. I planted three plants, but lost two to hail while they were pretty small. Here I am, 2 weeks away from my first frost and one tiny fruit has shown up; I don't think it will actually ripen in time to harvest. I don't think I can blame the hail, since 4 other pepper varieties have thrived in exactly the same environment. I have no clue what they taste like, since they can't produce edible fruit in my growing season. |
