I do not have a summer residence, but I want to dig in the ground. I decided to grow bell peppers on the window. The choice fell on the Bucharest variety. It is small in size and is perfect for balconies. How he made me happy! Fruits of a color uncharacteristic for pepper - purple. It has grown, of course, a little, but its own.

Leonid, 58 years old, Ivanovo
I bought the seeds of the Bucharest variety for the first time. The seedlings turned out to be good, strong. Planted in a greenhouse. Of course, the peppers look unusual because of the purple color of the fruit, while immature. But my family prefers ripe fruits. Therefore, we did not pick the purple ones, we waited until they turn red. The variety is early maturing. In general, not bad. I think I'll plant some more.
