California wonder is a bell pepper variety introduced in 1828. It is probably the most popular (and oldest) commercial variety grown in the United States today. The dark green peppers are mostly 4-lobed and blocky, about 11cm (4½in) long and 10cm (4in) wide, with crisp, thick walls and sweet taste. Fruit eventually ripens to bright red approximately 75 days after transplanting. The peppers are borne on tall plantswhich produce an abundance of peppers over a very long season.[2]
