Albino Bullnose is a sweet, non-pungent pepper that produces thick-walled, blocky fruits with a crisp bite and mild, clean sweetness. The compact dwarf plants stay around 2 feet tall yet can yield a dozen or more 3 to 4 inch peppers, starting creamy bone-white, then shifting through pale yellow to orange and finishing a warm reddish-orange to red when fully ripe. Expect harvest in about 65 to 85 days from transplant, with steady production from early summer into frost in warm conditions. Perfect for frying, roasting, stuffing, and fresh slicing, this variety doubles as an ornamental thanks to its luminous color changes and heavy set of fruit.
