This pepper looks just like a chilli pepper but is a most unusual SWEET pepper instead!.
I first grew it in 2024 and was surprised at the yield so I have grown it since.
The plants grow about 30 inches to 36 inches in height and produce numerous spiral/corkscrew shaped fruits from 3 inch to 8 inches in length.
I have grown the plants both in pots and in beds in a polycarbonate greenhouse. They grow just like any other sweet pepper and benefit from a rich soil with chicken poo fertilizer, bonemeal or well rotted manure added to the compost mix.
The plants need to be staked, but a shortish 4 foot cane should suffice.
The fruits are sweet but do not have thick fleshy walls like most sweet peppers.
I have been supplying these to a local restaraunt for their novelty value and they would be ideally suited to be used at a party or other occasion stuffed with cream cheese (after removing the seeds inside of course).
Very unusal variety and I have not seen anything similar elsewhere.
