Vegetables
Cherokee Purple Tomato
Dusky rose shoulders, a deep smoky sweetness, and the best slicing tomato we grow.
Vegetables
Capsicum annuum
The blocky green-to-red bell that made stuffed peppers a weeknight dinner.
Thick-walled four-lobed bells, about four inches across, ripening from glossy green to a full sweet red if you leave them on. Sturdy upright plants hold their fruit off the ground. An honest, reliable pepper — nothing exotic, just a good yield of the shape everyone actually wants. Harvest green for crunch and heft, red for sweetness.
Where it comes from. Introduced in 1928 and a garden standard ever since.
