Pepper 'Neapolitan'
(65 days)
30 seeds $3.00
HomeNeapolitan is the earliest pepper I've ever grown - perfect for northern climates. The fruits are 4" long and 2" wide. They ripen from yellow-green through orange to bright red at maturity. They have somewhat thin walls and a sweet, mild flavor. Stake the plants to keep the fruits off the ground.
This Italian-American heirloom was introduced in 1904 by a New Jersey seed company.
Sowing Neapolitan Pepper Seeds
