PEPPER 
676 CALIFORNIA WONDER 
/See Color Plate Page 39. 
Thick Flesh, Sweet, Crisp, Tender 
Fruits of California Wonder often 
weigh half a pound to one pound each, 
and there is no doubt that this is the 
““meatiest’” pepper ever introduced. The 
flavor is so mild, delicious and free from 
pungency that it may be eaten just 
like an apple.
