The Joe E Parker pepper is a variety of mildly hot Anaheim pepper types.  Sturdy plants grow between 45-61 cm (18-24") tall and 41cm (16”) wide.  A very productive plant that yields15-20 peppers per plant.  Peppers average around 16-20 cm (6½-8”) and 2.5-5 cm (1½-2”) wide at the shoulder.  They start out as bright green and mature to a red in about 75-85 days, weather dependent.  Once picked, they will continue to ripen from green to red. The fruit is thick walled, crisp and has an excellent flavour. Often used as a stuffing pepper.  Can be used green or red.
