Default Heart shaped sweetie

New Belarusian sweet pepper Parnas has got very nice heart shape with pointed end and yellow skin:





300-500 g, thick walls and 4-6 peppers on a vigorous plant!

Is it a 'pimento' type, the kind that's canned/jarred and great mixed with cheese to make a spread for crackers/sandwiches?

Earl, I think Parnas is rather big for Pimiento type. It looks more like bell type but with with heart shape. But I'm not so good in pepper type identification :wink:

G’Day Andrey!

That is one mighty fine pepper! I sure would like to grow it out here in Oz.

Cheers.

Love that sweet pepper! I e-mailed you privately. I am interested in possible trade for unusual sweet peppers. Looking to try some new sweet ones in 2007.

Dear Patty, unfortunately there were only some people (Rena + mostly not from TV) who traded for this nice-looking variety last and this year. Of course, this is an OP variety as all pepper varieties mentioned in my pepper list here:

Is it too late for most of you to start peppers in USA/Canada? :wink: I'll do it in a week or so here in Belarus.
