I enjoy sweet peppers, but have not grown lots of varieties. There are three I like better than some of the other sweet peppers.

Cuneo: A long bell starting green ripening to yellow. Cut in half fills a sandwich. Very thick flesh.

Georgescu: Another elongated bell starting light green turns yellow then ripens to red. Very juicy and crunchy. I like this and cuneo raw on sandwiches.

Giant Arconcagua: A long thinner pepper, but very large overall. The fruit for me has been 8-12 inches long. Starts out light green and turns red. This is the sweetest of my three favorites and is good raw no matter the color and is really good put on the barbeque with any kind of meat.
