Don't Forget To Add These for Your Plants:

Medusa Pepper is a fast-growing dwarf annual with dark green foliage.  It produces an abundance of colorful twisting peppers that emerge cream and transition to yellow, orange, then red, with all colors possible on the same plant at once from midsummer into fall.  Best if grown in full sun and rich, moist, acidic well-drained soils.  Though it is an ornamental variety, Medusa has a surprisingly good sweet pepper taste with low heat.
