This one is so fun to grow! It has very unique foliage that is mottled with green and white. This mottling continues to the peppers that are variegated with stripes. The 2" curving pendant fruits look a little like swimming fish. Peppers turn from white with green stripes to orange with brown stripes and finally to a mature solid red. 

In the 1940s seeds were received from Horace Pippin, a black folk painter in West Chester, Pa. The peppers came from Baltimore, where they had been employed by black caterers to make white paprika for the cream sauces then popular with fish and shellfish cookery. The white and green foliage and the striped pods derive their unique look from the same recessive genes that cause albinism.
