Description

The listing, ~Great Garden Conversation Plant, The Yellow "Peter" Pepper~ 20 has ended.

Capsicum annuum "Peter pepper" (sometimes referred to as the ***** pepper) is an heirloom chili pepper that is best known for its unusual shape.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_pepper#Appearance

Plants grow to about 2 feet
Bloom color; White
90 days

Produces good yields -- 2 ¾" long by ¾" wide peppers. Medium - Hot (heat level 7-8, Scoville heat units 10,000–23,000 ) turns from green to yellow when mature. Sometimes pickled or added to salsa, it's surely a unique garden plant.

This is an heirloom op variety, not a hybrid. So saved seeds from isolated plants will come true to type in the next generation, unlike hybrids.

Plant like any other chili after danger of frost.

These seeds were also properly collected from mature RIPE pepper pods.

20 seeds -- GIN gets you 30 seeds!!
P.S. BEWARE OF ROSE SEEDS! There's a reason why we don't see rose seeds sold in big garden centers. INFO LINK; opaldragondreamer.blogspot.com/2012/10/scammers-suck-continuing-saga-of-fake.html

Also beware of home collected seeds from hybrid plants. They're no longer the same variety. Ask questions. Research >reliable< sources. Learn to succeed in your gardening efforts!

Thirdly, a GREEN bell pepper is an UNRIPE bell pepper & isn't likely to provide VIABLE seeds. There are very few varieties that produce bell peppers that ripen to green. Same for GREEN Jalapeno & most other pepper varieties. It only take minutes to check the variety & discover the color of the RIPE pepper.

Apple seeds? Mercy! Don't get me started!

I'm barefooted, wearing shorts and been outside a good part of the day. But we might get frost next month.

We usually get 1 or 2. It snowed in Jan. 1977. Last year we didn't but it was cooler longer.

Thank you! We've spoken before and I sent you a link to my facebook garden group, but I guess you didn't join. There are hundreds of ppl there that would love to trade properly collected heirloom seeds. But if that's too much, just msg me your list to look at. :)
