I had started the Chileplants Lunchbox Peppers in the Bounty however I never topped and they were not all that healthy looking at the time. I planted it outside in a pot and while it is not growing taller it has a ton of flowers and peppers on it. Here is a bit about these peppers. nAs you can tell be the description and the pictures (below) the plant is no where near the height it should be. Waiting to see how it does. Note: I may move this to my Garden but that is yet to be determined. Also if I get to taste these and thy are good I will try to grow again in the AG.

Leaves look yellow here but they are not, maybe the sun and angle of camera. Also the one pepper is starting to change color and you can not really see it.

Well these Peppers are a success for taste! I WILL try to grow these again in the AG. I can not post the picture of the ripe pepper because yesterday my dear hubby picked if off and popped it in his mouth before I was able to take a snap of it. So the picture below from two days ago will have to do. Mark's assessment of the Lunchbox Reds Very Sweet! Thick Flesh! Good Crunch but not too firm, very pleasant. Seeds are at a minimum if any at all. These would be great for a sandwich, stir fried great in a Salsa I bet too!

I have, Shawn..quite a while ago, though because I do not have the patience for peppers in an AG. If memory serves, I believe I discovered them through MaryL and we did a GAL.
