Pimento Sheepnose Pepper Seeds - A Sweet Heirloom Delight

Grow your own stunning Pimento Sheepnose Pepper Seeds and enjoy one of the best sweet peppers for home gardens. This beautiful heirloom variety ripens from vibrant green to a striking fire-engine red, making it a showstopper in both your garden and your kitchen.

Why Choose Sheepnose Pimento Pepper?

An Ohio heirloom, the Sheepnose Pimento Pepper is prized for its adaptability to northern climates and its thick-walled, juicy, and crisp texture. Perfect for stuffing, roasting, snacking, or creating classic pimento cheese spread, these peppers measure 3-4" wide with thick stems, ensuring a bountiful harvest.

Key Features:

  • Heirloom & Open-Pollinated - A reliable, non-GMO variety that you can save seeds from year after year.
  • Sweet & Versatile - With a Scoville heat level of 0-500, these peppers are mild and perfect for any dish.
  • Easy to Grow - Compact 24" plants thrive in gardens or large 5-gallon containers.
  • Fast Harvest - Ready in just 70 days, these peppers are a gardener’s dream.

Growing Tips:

Start your Pimento Sheepnose Pepper Seeds indoors 8 weeks before the last frost. Plant seeds 1/4" deep in sterile soil, maintain 85°F bottom heat, and keep moist. Germination takes 7-14 days. Transplant seedlings once they develop 6 true leaves, spacing them 30" apart in rich soil or containers.

Harvest when peppers turn a deep red for the best flavor. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or a beginner, these easy-to-grow peppers will reward you with a delicious and visually stunning crop.

Don’t miss out. Order your Pimento Sheepnose Pepper Seeds today and bring home a taste of heirloom goodness!
