A cinch to grow in the North. CR, no pepper pro, reported counting 54 full-sized and 12 baby peppers on his 11 plants on Sept. 8, 2014— illustrating its potential in a good pepper year. Resists blossom drop even in adverse weather so that almost every flower produces. Fruits thin-walled, not blocky, turn red early, good for the home garden. New Ace is an improvement on the old strain, producing fewer misshapen pointy peppers, but still not a majority of classic blocky 4-lobed commercial peppers. From Ohio, Janine Welsby responds, “Don’t damn them with faint praise! Still the only pepper that consistently ripens gorgeous red bells for us. Maybe they are kind of misshapen but the taste makes up for it.”
