Also known as the Pimiento pepper or the cherry pepper, the Pimento sweet pepper is a red, small heart-shaped pepper with a mild flavor and very little heat. They are sweet and are one of the mildest chile peppers – think sweeter and more aromatic red bell pepper.
Pimento seeds will produce amazing plants with amazing yields of great-tasting peppers that grow to 3-4" long and will ripen from green to a deep red. Make sure you harvest red Pimento peppers for the best flavor. Growing Pimento peppers will be one of your favorite plants to grow because this thick-walled fruit grows well in any climate, and they are great for a variety of culinary uses.
Pimentos are great for stuffing, roasting, snacking, stuffing inside the center of green olives, the classic cheese spread, and even garnishing on a martini! These round fruits stay fresh longer than most produce, which means you can enjoy the zesty flavor and crispiness for an extended time. Pick up some Pimento seeds today and try them out!
