Description:
Sweet Sunset Peppers are a great crunchy variety that grows easily in your backyard. Winning the 2015 All-American Selection award (basically, the Miss America pageant of sweet peppers), these banana peppers have a great eating quality used for any meal you like!
These pepper plants are super compact and work great for a small home garden, containers, or on the patio. Growing up to 3 ft. tall, these shorties will definitely fool you, as the plant is known for its large pepper yields, often producing 15-20 peppers per plant! Sweet Sunset Peppers grow to around 7" long and ripen from their early green to light yellow when they're ready to harvest. Note: You can also let them mature to orange and bright red if you leave them on the plant a little longer. These are continuously producing plants that look great all season long!
Bring the beauty of the sunset to your backyard with these sweet and crunchy banana peppers. These colorful and tasty peppers are great fresh or canned, or you can cut Sweet Sunset Peppers into rings for salads, sandwiches, and pizza.
