The listing, Jimmy Nardello Italian Sweet Pepper Seeds has ended.

Jimmy Nardello's Pepper, 7 seeds. Heirloom, non-GMO
It's no wonder that this variety has been grown and cherished for generations. An almost uncanny sweet, fruity flavor makes these peppers tempting and delightful eaten straight off the plant, but traditional Italian cuisine typically uses them for frying. Jimmy Nardello's has consistently been one of the first peppers in our trials to ripen, beginning green and ripening to red. Super productive, disease-resistant plants.

A Delicious Sweet Pepper From Italy.

We have one Giuseppe Nardello to thank for this spectacularly tasty sweet frying pepper. From the small village of Ruoti in the Basilicata region of southern Italy, Giuseppe brought this heirloom to the states, where it was introduced in 1887. Grazie, Giuseppe! All season long the low-growing 20-24" plants produce loads and loads of long, thin peppers, 6-10" long. The peppers are altogether delicious, whether cooked in a little olive oil, grilled, chopped, saut‚ed with other vegetables, or used raw in salsas and salads. These peppers are perfect for pickling or drying. Harvest in 80-90 days from transplant.
