Although we're quite used to chillis coming in all shapes and sizes, most of us think of sweet peppers as being pretty big. Mini red bell peppers, however, buck the system. The little peppers have thick flesh and oh-so-sweet flavour. Enjoy them fresh, roast them with a tasty filling, or bottle them for tasty snacking. Added bonus? They're awesome as pot plants, so even apartment gardeners can enjoy growing them.

  • Growing Information

    How to Sow

    Growing peppers is easy, so direct sowing is usually fine, but for good control over your germination conditions, sowing in trays is usually a better bet. A light covering soil is all these seeds need. Then water well and only repeat when you see the soil surface starting to dry out.

    How to Harvest

    As soon as your peppers look big enough to eat, you can start to harvest them. If you want red peppers, leave them on the vine until they colour up. Cut them off with a sharp pair of scissors, secateurs or a knife to avoid damage to the fruit or the plant.

    Seeds germinated within specified timeframes

    Seedlings (I planted 3) are growing beautifully and I look forward to picking some juicy, crunchy capsicums in due course.

    Can't give 5 stars until I have grown them out. All seeds germinated that I sowed.
