Sweet Pepper California Wonder - 1 Pkt (100 seeds)
"HEIRLOOM. 75 days. The standard bell pepper for many decades, this 1928 introduction is still the largest open-pollinated, heirloom bell you can grow, and a big improvement over the earlier bells. Consistently produces 3"" X 4"", 4-lobed fruit."

California Whoppers!!,
March 7, 2009 Submitted byGardenGirl88 from Twin Valley, MN
"I planted 3 of these in my garden and got more than I bargained for. Two of the plants gave me peppers 6 inches long and 5 inches in diameter! They were bigger than any pepper I've ever seen in the stores!
We had enough for me to use fresh, in picante sauce, and my husband took some into work to give to the guys for stuffed peppers. They said I should enter them in the county fair. Other than water and one shot of Miracle Gro, I didn't do anything special at all. Guess they just liked my garden!"

I'll try these again,
January 31, 2009 Submitted byhomegardener from vermont
"Been trying these for several years. great looking plants not so good yield though. Good germination soil PH is good watering is right Planted close enough so the leaves touched Didn't get sun til noon because of a tree which I recently took down. Gonna try some blossom spray this year An old friend told me that Epson salt at the base of the plants helps and passing a pillow case or towel over the tops when flowering helps pollination. I hope these things work this year I love stuffed peppers"

"I've always had trouble growing quality peppers and a friend warned me about this variety. My friend was wrong. It was prolific and a wonderful mild pepper flavor. This is my new favorite pepper."

Wish I had more!,
January 12, 2008 Submitted byHoneybeenc from Zone Seven, Charlotte, NC
"My only regret is that I didn't start the seeds indoors earlier. There were so many buds and flowers on the plants when the frost hit them that it made me sad to say good-bye. The plants produced lots of tasty, thick-walled peppers."
