favorite What do you think is the prettiest pepper?

[Simcows]

Looks only, both pepper and plant. I'd say of the varieties I know of, Fish peppers are the prettiest but I want to see what everyone considers a good looking aesthetically pleasing pepper!

Maybe the black pearl pepper, in a container, together with a dark purple blooming plant like Campanula glomerata.

Toss up between the plants combining variegation with anthocyanin, like Jigsaw, Bellingrath Gardens, and Scarlett’s Chilli, and the better examples of rainbow-ripening peppers.

Jigsaw (mine from last year):

“Bolivian Rainbow” (many forms trade by this name, but to my chagrin Juuka’s is prettiest; this is his photo):

We are growing the Jigsaw pepper from Baker Creek seeds. About Jalapeño heat said makes great pickles.

It’s a really fun grow! Mine was showy from the first true leaves.

How were the pods @thoroughburro ?

That looks stunning!

It's so pretty we are growing 6 to plant in our flower gardens, & 1 in a large pot to over winter.

Stop it with those pictures guys! You make it really really hard not to buy more seeds.

Looks very similar pod wise to the APS Black Jelly Bean from Atlantic Pepper Seeds here in Canada

Not very tasty, in my grow… pretty bad actually. But it was nonetheless a standout, and I had many compliments from strangers — put it where it can be seen.

Edit: I should note, my Jigsaw was from the Chile Pepper Institute, and had notably smaller pods than in the Baker Creek photo, so maybe those will be more usable.

If you think FIsh Pepper is one of the prettiest, then I'm Baskin Robbins.https://towns-endchiliandspice.com/search?q=Knight
