Interesting. I'm growing Apple Pimento and Piment d'Espelette this year. Both are commonly dried and ground for use as or like paprika.

The espelettes are fast-producing and great low-light plants, but have a high skin to flesh ratio. I probably won't grow again.

Apple Pimento is thick-fleshed and reminiscent of Alma Paprika, and like that variety is relatively slow and not all that prolific. Interesting elongated leaves. If it dries well I'll probably keep this plant.

And will be on the lookout for Leutschauer seeds.
