Key Features & Benefits
Prolific Producer: Vigorous 18" plants yield an incredible amount of fruit all season long. Harvest early at the yellow-green stage or wait for sweeter orange-red peppers.

Fast Growing: Ready to harvest just 60 days after transplanting outdoors.
Heritage Quality: A prized cross between Italian bullhorn and bell peppers, offering the best traits of both.

Growing Your Gypsy Peppers
Planting: Start seeds indoors 8 weeks before last frost. Sow 1/4" deep in seedling mix with 80-85°F bottom heat. Keep moist and provide bright light.
Transplanting: Move to pots until plants develop 6 true leaves. Space 30" apart in rich soil or use 5-gallon containers.
Harvesting: Pick peppers at any stage - young yellow-green for crisp texture or fully ripe orange-red for maximum sweetness.
