Single Image
VEGETABLES / PEPPER
SWEET
C. annuum. This New Mexican type pepper is elongated and pointed with thin skin. They are 1.5" wide, 3-4" long, and 0.5-2 oz. They are fairly seedy. The leathery skin is tough and lacking crunch, though the flavor is nice and sweet. There is slight heat, but not much. It would be good for paprika. There is some lateral corking and it was prone to blossom end rot during the 2021 growout at Heritage Farm. The plants are small, 2.5-3.5' tall, with few branches. SSE Accession # 117593
