Backstory
The parent 7 Pot Bubblegum line was developed in the United Kingdom by Jon Harper in the early 2010s. It is known for the bleeding calyx trait in which pod color moves into the stem. This Cotton Candy version is a later multicolored selection grown and offered by Sherwood's Seeds in Pennsylvania.
