    Red bell peppers are just ripe green bell peppers, yes. But yellow, orange, etc. are actually distinct varieties. These are indeed all from the same species of plant, though.

      I just looked it up and there’s also apparently a “permagreen” variety that obviously doesn’t turn red, making it all even more confusing!
