Sweet Italian Pepper | Seeds
Days to Maturity: 85 from transplant
Say hello to the Italian sweet pepper with bright green skin, heavy yields, a compact habit, great disease resistance, and early maturity. It's the pepper that has it all?and we haven't even started talking about the flavor yet.
Friariello?sets more than 2 dozen long, tapered peppers on every compact plant. They reach 7 to 9 inches long and weigh in at about 2 to 4 ounces each. Great for fresh eating, grilling, or roasting, these Italian sweet peppers are big on flavor and texture?juicy, rich, and meaty. The skin peels away easily, but it is also delicious to eat.
And Friariello?gets going early in the season and never pauses. The plant reaches only about 24 inches high and 15 inches wide, so you can easily grow it in tall patio containers as well as in the vegetable patch or annual bed. It may need staking to hold up all those peppers, though.
It's easy to grow, never letting you down and going into smaller spaces than most other peppers. Best of all, it's great eating. You can't go wrong.
If starting indoors, allow 7 to 10 weeks for the seeds to mature into seedlings large enough to transplant safely. Fertilize when the blooms appear, and water well. Let the fruit ripen before harvesting it.
