| I still have a few of these in a pot near my other peppers as a trap plant. Every plant eating and leaf sucking creature that lives and breathes must like these things. To me they are hardly worth growing even though the taste good eaten fresh. They are just much more valuable as an insect magnets that I can spray as needed. As long as I have a few of these around the rest of my pepper plants are only secondary targets. |

| Modestly succesful in my cold climate. Hybrids generally do better here than open-pollinated peppers. In a decent summer here they will produce a half dozen or so small to large fruit; usually the first 1-2 fruit to set get large and those that follow are smaller, depending on weather. |

| High yield. No pests or diseases. Good taste. Plants grew to about 4 ft high with 2-3 ft spread. Seems to like the hot weather as they did well here in north Georgia. |

| These grew very well for me. Plants were very healthy and each one was loaded with peppers from the end of August until frost. Tasted like a pepper. We got a lot of rain, which I don't think helped the flavor. |
