They all start off as greens, but then ripen to red, and the hybridized
ones into various colors.... the riper the pepper the more
perishable... you pay premium for vine ripened and for those lost to
decay. Bell peppers are extremely easy to grow, a very small plot will
produce more than you could possibly use... if you come by this August
I'll give you more than you can hug to your bosom... a whole pecker of
purple <G>
