Pepper - Nardello - Capsicum annuum

Tender Annual Heirloom. Delightful fresh or fried, this pepper is also a sweet non-bell pepper when ripe. An Italian heirloom preserved by the Nardello family. Red when ripe, these 6"-8" peppers have shiny, wrinkled skins.

Did You Know? Mr. Nardello's mother originally brought the seeds with her when she immigrated to the U.S. in 1887 with her husband Giuseppe.

Soil & Water: Prefers fertile, well-drained soil with ample calcium and phosphorus. Moderate water needs.

Planting & Growing: It is ok to have the top leaves touching slightly which will help shade the fruit and roots when the summer temperatures rise. Mulch the plants to keep soil cooler than the air temperature and reduce evaporation.

Harvesting & Storage: Can harvest green but fruits become sweeter as they ripen red.

Planting Depth: 1/4"

The Best Frying Pepper - Ferments Well Too!

We fell in love with these from the Farmer's Market, so had to grow my own. The seeds germinated very well using the all-in-one indoor grow setup I also purchased. Had enough starts to share and we ate peppers all summer. Finished the season by fermenting these with the last of the jalapeños for the perfect medium-heat combo.

Excellent Heirloom

I love these peppers and they did well in the Sacramento Valley with a bit of late afternoon shade. Delicious! I am ordering my 2nd packet.

Nice and Sweet

First time for this pepper and was very pleased. Nice and sweet. Produced 3-4 peppers/plant. Very thin wall, so it will dehydrate in less time.
