Note 10 — WHAT TO GROW. (continued 2)
Reading edition
A very distinct and novel variety has just been introduced from China, under the name of Celestial Pepper. The small, nearly heart-shaped fruits are produced in great abundance, growing upright, and are of a beautiful creamy yellow color until fully ripe, when they turn coral red: the plant is handsome enough for the flower garden. Among the largest of the sweet, mild red peppers are Spanish Monstrous and Procopp’s Giant, while among the hottest of all peppers is the Long Narrow Cayenne.—Ed.
