I got this in a bunch of mixed peppers but have never seen one like this before. Any ideas?

It looks like one of the ornamental peppers that turn shades of yellow, orange, and red when ripe. Most have some heat to them.

Whatever it is, it's pretty!

Ciao Triss,

It looks a lot like Duane's Largo Purple. They're edible and very attractive.

Cheers,
Julianna

Thanks.

If it is an ornamental, will I be able to pull them up and overwinter them like I do with my other peppers? They do not get really big, do they?
