pumpkin peppers

I have a passing acquaintance with hundreds of pepper cultivars, but I have
never heard of this one. A description should be useful. There is an unusual
looking sweet pepper called Balloon and there are a couple of tomato shaped
peppers.

Scroll down a bit, there's a description and a link to a picture.

The description, for those who don't want to bother with the link
is:

"A pepper, that when dried, takes the shape of a mini pumpkin. It
is hard when it dries and can be used in crafts that need a dried
pumpkin shape. These peppers hold their shape after drying and
won't mold. You can buy the peppers themselves or the seed to
grow them. "

I was curious, too.
