677 RUMANIAN WAX. (Semi-Hot.) Large Yellow Fruit. Our 
strain of this variety fills the demand for a large-fruited early yellow 
pepper of some pungency—the flesh is sweet but the ribs are hot. The 
fruit are long, 4% to 5 in. and about 2% in. across at the shoulder, 
with a tapering or pointed shape. The color is an attractive lemon- 
yellow turning to orange and then bright red. This is the true, heavy- 
yielding dwarf type ripening very early.
