Gypsy F1 Sweet Pepper: A Prolific & Flavorful Garden Favorite

Discover the Gypsy Pepper, a 1981 All-American Selections winner that delivers an unbeatable combination of sweetness, versatility, and abundant harvests. This exceptional hybrid pepper is a must-have for home gardeners and culinary enthusiasts alike.

Why Choose Gypsy Pepper?

Unlike traditional bell peppers, the Gypsy Pepper boasts a uniquely sweet flavor with none of the bitterness. Its 3-lobed, wedge-shaped fruits grow 3–5" long with medium-thick walls, perfect for:

  • Fresh eating in salads
  • Sautéing and frying for stir-fries
  • Stuffing with your favorite fillings

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.

Disease Resistant: Naturally resistant to TMV (Tobacco Mosaic Virus) for healthier plants with less maintenance.

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.

Eco-Friendly: Untreated, Non-GMO seeds support sustainable gardening practices.

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.

Join countless satisfied gardeners who prize the Gypsy Pepper for its reliable production, outstanding flavor, and garden adaptability. Order your seeds today and experience this award-winning variety in your own garden!
