Overview
Permagreen is an unusual sweet bell pepper released in 1965 by the New Hampshire Agricultural Experiment Station. Its blocky fruit is a deep moss-green so dark it looks almost black, and it stays that color at full maturity instead of turning red. Bred from Merrimack Wonder and Burlington lines, it is an early type adapted to the northern United States and Canada, where a long ripening period cannot be counted on.
