★★★★☆ Great Tasting Pepper
By David Geier (San Diego, CA) on August 16, 2024

I purchased a purple bell pepper and got these instead, but they still turned out to be a good pepper. Flavorful either in a salad or in fresh salsa. They are medium hot, but still tolerable to the taste. One item of note: The plants have a tendency to want to grow horizontal and spread out. I had to stake these up to keep them off the ground. However they are a massive producer. Once the fruits start to grow and reach maturity, they ripen very fast so you will need to keep them picked frequently.

★☆☆☆☆ Not Pepperoncini
By Greg DeBrun (IL) on July 1, 2024

Purchased one packet of seeds in January 2024, now I have purple bell peppers. The package says Italian Pepperoncini, but the plant says otherwise.

★★★★★ Great for pickling
By Joe DeMeo on March 7, 2014

Once these plants started producing I got really excited because the plants were just LOADED. I was able to pick an entire plant at once and pickled them. The plants then grew tons more! I'll be growing twice as much this year so that I can pickle for gifts. They were amazing!
