Posted by farmerdill (Augusta Georgia - Zone 8a) on Jul 30, 2013 1:03 PM A very popular open pollinated bell pepper. Medium size but nice shape and reasonably productive. In fact the most productive open pollinated bell that I have grown. [ Reply to this comment | |
Posted by BookerC1 (Mackinaw, IL - Zone 5a) on Aug 22, 2014 10:35 PM These are a very popular variety of bell pepper. The ones I grew tended to be short and fairly square, most with four lobes. Great for making stuffed peppers, as they stand upright well in a baking dish. The downside is that these seemed very prone to blight in my garden. [ Reply to this comment | |
