LANDRETHS’ PEPPER VARIETIES UNCERTIFIED 
Cheese (Sunnybrook)—110 Days — Sweet. Medium-sized plant, producing many small 
fruits borne upright. Size is generally 3 inches wide and 1 inch thick, the shape of a Cheese 
pumpkin. The fruits are very smooth, the color when young being green, and ripening to 
a deep red color. The walls are very thick and the flesh sweet. Used whole for pickling. 
Chinese Giant—130 Days—Sweet. Medium-sized plants, bearing pendant, very large 
fruits, mostly 4x4 inches with no tapering to the 4 or 5 irregular points. The fruits are 
very rough and much ribbed, and belly-out at the center like a Chinese lantern. When 
immature they are green and ripen to red. Walls are thin and the flesh sweet. Where very 
large, rough fruits are wanted, this is the kind to plant, but the thinness of the walls is a 
disadvantage. 
Crimson Giant (Ohio Crimson)—125 Days—Sweet. This is similar to Chinese Giant, 
but the fruits are smaller. It matures its crop earlier, but not as early as Certified Ruby 
King or Certified World Beater. These are both very much superior, having larger and 
smoother fruits with thicker walls. 
Harris’ Early Giant—110 Days—Sweet. This variety might be described as an earlier 
World Beater since the general characters of plant and fruits are about the same. It is 
well suited to the most northern states where World Beater matures too late.
