breeding Italian Roaster II Hybrid

My unexpected find of the year: The Italian Roaster II Hybrid (seeds acquired from TomatoGrowers.com). These things are great! Despite the name, they are definitely not roasting peppers; they're actually frying peppers. About 6-7 " long; mild heat roughly comparable to an average or mild jalapeno; excellent green pepper flavor.

Here is a pic of the plant with a few pods hanging off of it (we ate the rest of them):

And here is a pic of our breakfast concoction of the day: Italian Roaster II's with egg and mozzarella cheese on garlic bagels, with some chipotle sauce on top:

Highly recommend these for those seeking some mild pungency pods for the garden!
