Grow the classic, tangy pepper that is a staple of salad bars and pizzerias with our Pepperoncini pepper seeds. This beloved Italian heirloom is prized for its mild heat and wonderfully tangy, sweet flavor. The productive plants yield a huge harvest of slender, wrinkled, 2-4 inch peppers that ripen from a pale green to red. They are the quintessential pepper for pickling, but are also fantastic for frying or adding a zesty crunch to salads and sandwiches.
