The peppers on the left are Gypsy. Peppers grow terrible around here, and people usually do better with small peppers than bells. The Gypsy are not bells but taste similar. They start out that hungarian wax pepper color (stayed that way FOREVER!) then finally turn red. I was going to post a pic of finished peppers but I guess I don't have access from where I am. I'll try to remember later

The peppers directly in front of the cukes are Jupiter Bell, which I won't bother to grow again. I am surprised at how well they did turn out, but the Gypsies are just so much less fussy and more productive. A GREAT variety for our area. I bought them without knowing and they turned out great. I am growing a couple more this year, this time in pots.

Raybo posted above some very great trellising DIY stuff. He is the MASTER of this type of stuff. I believe there are trellis instructions included in the Earthtainer post? Check that out.
