Bright red, spicy red pigment (red pigment) content of about 3%. The flavor of pepper is lower than that of the claw type dried pepper variety.
The tall tufted bullet is a new tufted pepper strain selected from the natural variation of three cherry pepper. Tall tufted bullet heads are typical of the limited branching type. Collateral branches occur, but collateral branches occur in large numbers, thin branches, less fruit, and rarely red ripening. The main component of the yield is lateral fruit cluster, usually 4~5 lateral branches per plant, more than 10, and 8~16 lateral branches per plant. General results of main stem fruit clusters 10~20. The plant height is 60~80 cm, the main stem height is 40~50 cm, the main stem base thickness is 1.2~1.5 cm, the lateral branch height (length) is 30~50 cm, and the collateral branch height (length) is 15~30 cm. The pepper fruit is slightly shorter than the sphenoid warhead, the shoulder is slightly thicker, the top is blunt, the shape of the fruit is similar to the sphenoid warhead, the fruit is 4 to 5 cm long, the transverse diameter of the shoulder is 1 to 1.4 cm, and the stalk is 3.5 to 4 cm long.

More resistant to lodging. Wide adaptability, high potential for increasing production. It is suitable for the cultivation of spring pepper and wheat pepper. Spring pepper generally produces about 350 kg of dry pepper per mu.
5. Spiciness analysis
