Short plants ripen to medium-thick-walled, early, sweet, blocky-round type fruit a full 2 weeks earlier than other peppers. They continue to mature smaller fruit – somewhere between golf ball and tennis ball sized – throughout the season. In addition, its high productivity and ability to set quality fruit in challenging conditions set it apart from other early sweet peppers. Pimento means pepper in Portuguese (pimenta in Spanish), but the word has become an English moniker for this type of pepper. Pimento type peppers are commonly round, sweet, thick-walled, and smaller than bell peppers with a light spiciness. 60 days. Photo courtesy of Adaptive Seeds.
Care: Plant 18-24″ apart in rows 24-30″ apart in full sun. Keep soil uniformly moist (but not waterlogged) for best production.
