- Compact plants, 1.5-2' tall, produce medium sized ruffled peppers that ripen from dark green to red. Very good taste. I cannot see why it was called 'Baby Mammoth', unless 'baby' refers to fruit size. I think this pepper has a potential to grow larger fruits, but I planted them in a shady spot and the plants did not perform very well.
