I think the description is a bit off. They start off green but some plants will ripen to orange, some to yellow, and some to red. Orange is by far the superior one. If you can get a mix of only orange for that one. Red is substantially smaller and yellow is more in between. Orange is also the sweetest. Plants are very productive and I love to snack on these peppers. Customers love them as well. I will always grow this one, and I normally do not like the hybrids as much. Rating below has more to do with the orange. For Yellow and red I would go with 5 overall, 4 for taste, 5 for yield, and 5 for ease/reliability.\r\n\r\nJust updating with the 2018 season. One thing I wish with this variety would be earlier ripening, but still an outstanding pepper.
