Description:
Coming all the way from the Institute of Vegetable Breeding and Seed Production in Moscow, Healthy Sweet Peppers are a great variety for a flavorful taste with zero heat.
These early maturing sweet peppers grow on compact plants that reach roughly 2-1/2 ft. tall, making this a great choice for patio container growing. Pepper plants produce 4” long conical pods that ripen from a mustardy yellow to orange and then red. The Healthy Sweet pepper lives up to its name for two reasons - one being its disease-resistant plant that holds up well in most climates. They do best in full sun but will still ripen in cloudy summer weather and take just 70 days from transplant to produce.
The Healthy Sweet Pepper also lives up to its name for its delectably-sweet flavor that makes this a great variety to use in fresh foods or as a snacking pepper. You can also cook with this variety or make salsa and sauce with it.
