Older varieties which are a good size for the <strong>UK</strong> market are also still available. Their slower<br />
ripening makes them suitable for harvesting as either red or green fruit. Please ask if you<br />
would like more information on these varieties.<br />
Artega was introduced in 2012 for growers producing for markets where smaller peppers are<br />
required. Many growers growing for, or in the <strong>UK</strong> , for example, use this variety since the size<br />
is perfect for the triple pack. This strong variety can be loaded up early, and the fruit colours<br />
very quickly. The fruit is very uniform in size and weight and productivity in both pieces and<br />
kilos is excellent.<br />

Maldonado is a new red pepper to the market. Thanks to the extremely fast colouring<br />
fruits, the early production of the variety is very high. The plant is initially strong on first<br />
impressions, but ultimately proves to be relatively thin through the summer. The variety<br />
has, like Viper, the ability to set a lot of fruit again at the end of August and therefore total<br />
production is high.<br />
This new yellow pepper variety is appreciated by both growers and market for its excellent<br />
fruit quality: a beautiful well-shouldered blocky pepper of around 190g, (average over the<br />
year), with a bright, clear, yellow colour and excellent shelf life. The plant is open making it<br />
easy to work. In terms of productivity, the variety has proven to be up there with the best.<br />
