A.P. Whaley Staff –
These have such a wonderful flavor and aroma. My favorite way to eat them is fresh, just biting into the pepper. Great addition to salads, and with its sweet taste, maybe even a fruit salad? I’ll have to give it a try. The plants are fairly small, but always loaded with fruit when we grow them here in Wisconsin.
