Can anyone tell me if this is also known as a pemento pepper? I grew up hearing about the pemento pepper and that its all flavor and no heat..
But still dont know for sure what seeds i would need to get to grow my own.
and wonderful pictures as well. Love the shots of the flowers.

Well, I'm not completely sure it's pepper maggots, but something is definitely boring a small hole near the stem in a lot of the pods and causing them to rot on the inside. I've never actually seen any pepper maggots inside them, but it's a big PITA either way. I've had to throw out quite a lot of pods.

You are wright about the magotts or what ever can be,they drill the hole like you said at top by the stem & when you open pod inside is rotten & hardly any good seeds.Hope that is not the case with more peppers variety or going to be very hard to take.

It's actually pimiento in Spanish. As far as I know it usually only refers to a specific certain type of sweet red pepper, but none of the Spanish speakers I know use the word (only chile) so I don't know. Pimento is usually just a generic term for mild cherry peppers...

Yeah and I don't think there is really any control for them, at least that I know of. They seem to come around this time of year every year. Fortunately they don't get to all the pods at least.
