Sweet Bell Peppers
A blockbuster variety for yield, quality and flavor. These sturdy plants bear big, plump, juicy-sweet peppers that ripen to a gorgeous glossy orange. Plants are both vigorous and high yielding with excellent disease resistance. Gourmet Orange peppers are real beauties, heavy for their size, with thick walls, crunchy texture and fine sweet taste. Enjoy their delicious crispy flesh as a snack right out of the garden and use them for colorful, nutritious grilling, salads, stirfries or sautés.
