“King of the North" Pepper 
Enormous Fruit, Abundant Yield 
65 days. This is the earliest of the mammoth-size Peppers. 
The fruits, which, when ripe, are of a brilliant red color, aver- 
age about 5% inches long and 31% inches across. The flesh is 
firm, very sweet and mild. The plants are of a branching growth 
and literally covered with the large fruits, which are borne from 
the bottom right up to the top of the plant. We consider King

ommend it both as a market variety and for the home garden.
