Beaver Dam Pepper Seeds - A Mildly Spicy Heirloom Delight

Discover the unique charm of Beaver Dam Pepper Seeds, a treasured Hungarian heirloom prized for its sweet, crunchy flavor with a slow-building mild heat. These horn-shaped peppers grow 6" long and 2-1/2" wide, transitioning from bright green to vibrant red when ripe. Perfect for stuffing, goulash, or pickling, they bring a delightful balance of sweetness and gentle spice to your garden and kitchen.

Why Grow Beaver Dam Peppers?

Brought to Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, in 1912, this open-pollinated heirloom thrives on compact 18" tall plants, making it ideal for small gardens or containers. With a mild Scoville rating of 1,000, it offers just a hint of warmth - like a bell pepper with a subtle kick. Its versatility shines in dishes, from stuffed peppers to tangy pickled treats.

Growing Your Beaver Dam Peppers

Start these heirloom seeds indoors 8 weeks before the last frost. Plant 1/4" deep in sterile soil, maintain 85°F bottom heat, and keep moist. Germination takes 7–21 days. Transplant seedlings with 6 true leaves into rich soil (30" apart) or 5-gallon containers. Harvest green or wait for a bold red finish.
