Hmmm…I'm not entirely sure. Burpee has a real nice seed packet called 'Carnival Mix' . For $1.49 you get an even distribution of 5 different sweet peppers: Big Red, Chardonnay, Purple Beauty, Orange Sun, and Diamond. I could guess that the ones above are Big Red and maybe Orange Sun, but I really don't know. I enjoy the surprise of what colors I get each year. This year all 6 of my plants seem to grow red or orange peppers. Wonder what it'll be next year…
Given these peppers go for about $3-$4/lb at the grocery store, $1.49 for the seeds ain't a bad deal!
