I found an orphan pepper plant at Freddies and believed the label! It said "Sweet Heat." And it already had peppers on it. The big plant tag (almost as big as the plant) said, "Enjoy mildly spicy flavor fresh in salsa or grilled. 65% more vitamin C than average garden peppers." This plant was from the Burpee "Boost Collection."
This is the first pepper I have picked and the "sweet to spicy" promise is more like sweet and VERY spicy. About 1/10 of the pepper, chopped fine was plennnnty for the taco salad! The peppers are about 3" long by 1-1/2" wide. Plenty of heat for my gringo palate!
