    Heirloom Jimmy Nardello Pepper Seeds Same Day Shipped FREE
    Nearly 130 years after Jimmy’s mother brought her heirloom pepper plant seeds to the U.S., Jimmy Nardello Italian peppers have become all the rage with chefs and gardeners. Traditionally, these peppers were strung from a string and dried. The string was run through the stem of the pepper, with a needle. Dried peppers were then sliced or chopped and sautéed or fried for use in traditional Italian recipes.
    Each shipment contains 15 of our most viable seeds.
    Today, Jimmy Nardello peppers are dried, frozen, pickled, canned or used fresh in any recipe that calls for a sweet, crisp pepper. I've often compared this pepper when ripe to a Honey Crisp Apple.  Jimmy Nardello pepper plants require 80-90 days to mature. In northern climates with shorter summers, you may need to start the seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date.Plants need full sun and grow approximately 2 feet tall and wide. The fruit is 6-10 inches long and bright red at maturity. Jimmy Nardello peppers contain vitamin A, vitamin C and are low in calories.  All shipments will be sent in a quality bubble mailer with First Class shipping.  Tracking is not included, but can be added for additional cost.
