Annual0-100 SHU. The pimento pepper is a sweet, mild variety of Capsicum annuum. Recognizable by its heart-shaped, vibrant red fruits, the pimento pepper typically measures 3-4 inches long and 2-3 inches wide. Its thick, juicy flesh is exceptionally sweet and aromatic, making it perfect for a variety of culinary uses, including fresh eating, stuffing, roasting, and canning.
My Mom used to grow these, always tasted fantastic. Looking forward to having some again!
Grew these thinking they were good for making paprika. Turns out, They are so sweet and almost like eating candy, I prefer them on salads, by themselves and never dried any, but you do get quite a few peppers from a plant. They certainly do need fertilized, a fertilizer that has about 5 or 6 on the P and K maybe a 3 on the N. Too much nitrogen seems to grow vegetative growth but fewer peppers.
Tried this as something new. It grew well (in SE TEXAS Zone 8b) under harsh conditions of high humidity & heat (regularly 96F or more). Unfortunately I didn't enjoy eating it. So used it as a seasoning when cooking. But I do recommend if you like these types of thick walled peppers for stuffing. They never got bigger than 2.5 inches in my climate.
One of my favorite peppers, VERY prolific!!
Had a wonderful harvest this year with these seeds.

I purchased these melon seeds from MI Gardener this year to try something different. I love growing something new and different each year. When I tell you that Luke's seeds never fail or disappoint me, that is what I mean (I've been ordering for years). These seeds have had wonderful germination and the melons are unique and beautiful. I'm still waiting for them to ripen, which should be sometime in August. I can't wait to taste this amazing fruit, that has such a rich history. Thank you MI Gardener and team for always looking out for us small growers with your fabulous, cost effect, and unique seeds!
Beautiful flowers 😍
Two seeds i sowed germinated and are doing great. Still waiting on a pumpkin.
This butterhead lettuce is delicious. Love MIgardener seeds and service.
