Nu Mex Garnet is a fantastic pepper which is a "must have" for foodies. It makes a really deep flavoured paprika which is so popular with the family we will have to grow more next year. Its flavour used as a sweet pepper is outstanding and adds a new dimension to sweet pepper dishes. Easy to grow and a good cropper.
