Dragonfly, an F1 hybrid purple sweet pepper, is a fruit vegetable. The plant sets small, star-shaped "perfect" flowers, followed by 3 ½-inch, 4-lobed, blocky, bell-shaped peppers with thick, juicy walls and a robust, sweet flavor.The deep blackish purple exterior color contrasts beautifully with the bright lime green interior, but if left on the vine, fruits will turn bright red.Bell pepper is considered a superfood for its nutrient rich content, having a high (top 20) Aggregate Nutrient Density Index score (ANDI), or micronutrient-per-calorie density. Purple bell peppers contain vitamins C, A, B6, and E.Typically grown as an annual, this herbaceous, frost-tender, short-lived evergreen perennial is a member of the nightshade family (Solanaceae), which typically grow in temperate to tropical regions. Dragonfly grows rapidly, forming an upright, clumping plant that holds the purple peppers high (off the soil), making harvest easy.
