Pepper (Sweet) ‘Bridge to Paris’ (sweet frying pepper)

Description

This wonderful pepper comes to us from our friends at Uprising Seeds. Disentangled from the hybrid frying pepper “La Paris” and adding a hint of spice in the hands of Phillies Bridge Farm in Gardiner, NY; hence “Bridge to Paris.” The result? Perhaps the most beautiful fryer we have seen: long, glossy smooth, very sweet, bright red fruits to 8” and with much thicker flesh than most fryers. They have performed very well in trials across the northern US and were a standout at the OSA sweet pepper trial in Chimacum, WA. Plants are tall (24-36”), vigorous, and prolific and benefit from staking. Wonderfully sweet for fresh eating as well as for roasting and freezing. 85-100 days. Photo courtesy of Uprising Seeds.

Care: Plant 18-24″ apart in rows 24-30″ apart in full sun. Keep soil uniformly moist (but not waterlogged) for best production.
