Large fruits!,
August 17, 2007
Submitted by MeRL
"The description was correct -- I got large fruits even though I was forced to grow them in window boxes. I imagine that if I had been able to put them in the ground, they would have been larger and the yield would have been better. However, even with my limitations (and being a first-time gardener), the fruits were still more than twice as big as the (unknown) variety my mom has been growing for years.
The yields were acceptable. Each plant has produced 2 to 3 fruits of decent size, and the season is not over yet. I did have a bit of problem with blossom drop.
This is not a sweet pepper. The flavor is not what I was hoping for -- although that could be because of our drought this year. They were mild flavored, with a slightly tart/bitter aftertaste. Since we were not planning on eating them raw, this was not a big deal."
