One of the first bell pepper varieties to progress in color from ivory to yellow to blushed orange and finally end up solid red. Flavor is OK, but it's been surpassed by a number of newer varieties.

Bush plants of this AAS winner produce beautiful pink fruits that turn red when ripe. They are thick-walled, juicy, and mild-tasting. However, fruits were smaller than on common varieties such as 'California Wonder', and in cold areas they were slow to turn red.
