Lesya sweet pepper
Price range: $4.00 through $10.00
(Capsicum annuum)
A delightful sweet pepper from Ukraine. Stout bushes are relatively early maturing. Top-shaped fruit have thick walls and excellent flavour, keep well on the plant or after harvest, and are suitable for a wide range of recipes – we mostly eat them them in salads or stir-fries. Bred in Ukraine by Nadiya Filimoniva Bilous, who named it for a friend (Lesya being the diminuitive form of Oleksandra).
