Pepperoncini Pepper Plant Start

Bring the tangy, mild heat of the Mediterranean to your garden with the Pepperoncini Pepper Plant. Known for its long, wrinkled, pale-green pods that ripen to bright red, this pepper is a favorite for pickling, salads, and antipasto platters. The flavor profile is slightly sweet with just a hint of mild spice, making it versatile for fresh use or canning. Your purchase includes 1 premium live starter plant, ready for planting in Spring 2025 for a bountiful harvest.

All plant starts are grown in OASIS® 1.5″ x 1.5″ grow cubes until they reach approximately 4″ to 6″ in height. Plants are only stocked and made available for shipping once both the plant and root system are strong enough to withstand transit.
