| The Takara F1 Pepper Peppers plants produce a good yield of tiny green colored peppers from August on up to a hard frost in mid-September. Harvested and used in culinary dishes. Comments that the peppers had a spicy taste and a few with some good heat! Grew well with a hot and dry summer, drip irrigation watered. |

| Very productive plant. Green peppers are very tasty. As pepper matures to red, heat develops. Peppers are thin skinned and get dry quickly after turning red. Red peppers are great in a Pepper Jam recipe. |

| Very prolific and all turned red. But the thin walls made them seem dry and none were very hot. a few had a little heat. Not much flavor, either so what is the point? |

| Flavor was exceptionally good for a thin walled pepper.\r\n\r\nPlants have produced large quantities. Source state that 1 in 10 have some heat, but would rate this a medium heat found in more like 1 out of 6 fruits. |
