This bell pepper variety produces medium-sized blocky bell peppers with a deep purple color and a thick wall making for a sweet, crisp, and colorful addition to any dish. Purple skin contrasts beautifully with bright green interior flesh. Bound to spark interest around the dinner table because of its unique appearance and wonderful flavor.
I just had to try these!
I love growing this one, just for color alone!! But, it also tastes a lot better than my other bells!!
I have grown purple beauty’s for about 7 years now and they by far my favorite.
Very productive, easy and low maintenance to care for.
The color is absolutely beautiful. They almost ripen to a deep purplish black color. Highly recommended variety to try.
I also received mixed up varieties last year, no purple bell, only banana peppers grew so was mostly without bell peppers last year. You can actually tell in the greenhouse pepper trial video because it happens to the owner too.
The photo on the MIgardener site pales in comparison to what this is like. The picture shows a more lilac bell, this seed produced a deep dark black-like purple. The fruit went from green to blackish purple in a matter of 3 days. Later, it ripened to mostly red. For me, this produced few fruits and was slower than other peppers, but I enjoyed growing it so much, I will be growing it again in 2025. Transplanted June 15; flowers by July 24; clearly developing fruit by August 1; first dark fruit by Aug 3; ripened by Sept 28.

We have nice fertile soil in our greenhouse and able to control those pesty little flea beetles that can decimate eggplants foliage. I've been keeping them under control with DE and my eggplants are massive in size, about 3-4 feet tall with 1 foot lower leaves.
The eggplants fruit are developing nicely, nearly doubling in size daily. There are plenty of blossoms too. We're expecting that we won't need to grow more for a few years, we're planning on freeze drying most if them.
I purchased several packs of seeds from MiGardener during the semi annual sale, and they did not disappoint! Nearly 100 percent germination rate on all seeds I've planted. The only thing I haven't been able to germinate is lemon grass, which I'm learning may 1 take a very long time to germinate in general and 2 need bottom heat to help them sprout. Even without being on sale 2 bucks a seed pack for the amount they give (very generous compared to other companies, I might add) is a crazy good deal. If you have been on the fence, I encourage you to give MiGardener seeds a try! Thank you Luke and team, and Happy Gardening to all!
I'm not a seasoned gardener, so I don't necessarily know what's normal or not, but out of all the seeds I planted (got about a dozen different herbs and greens from MIgardener), the fenugreek was the quickest to sprout, had the highest germination rate, and the largest sprouting leaves. I'm pretty excited to watch them grow into beautiful plants.
Gardening for over 40 years. The Trifecta very impressed has all the elements I want in a fertilizer. Next year I will buy the largest amount.
Second squash to produce for me. Picked young and the skin is very thin/easily bruises. Roasted first batch and they were a delicious mild flavor! Very soft but the roasting gave a nice crust on them. 2nd batch mixed in a stir fry and it overcooked very easily and was mushy. I like how prolific this plant is and the mild taste. Just need to make sure not to overcook. Well definitely grow again.
