I got these seeds from the "Seeds from Italy" company. The plants were highly vigorous, surviving sitting in the full sun in 6 pack cell with no water for over a month. I finally installed them into our herb spiral and a few other places and they quickly took off. You can't ask for better than that. The fruits are gorgeous and very cute, about the size of cherries. I'm not planning on eating them anytime soon - just growing them for their ornamental value.
We'll dry a bunch and maybe use them later for salsas and things like that.

These marble-sized green to red peppers are very productive here. They are medium hot. My pepper-loving friends eat them like cherry tomatoes.
