Vigorous plants produce long, slender, pale-yellow peppers with thin walls and a clean, refreshing flavor. Pick them young for a delicate yellow harvest, or allow them to mature further on the plant as color and flavor develop. These versatile peppers are excellent fresh, grilled, stuffed, or pickled, and their elongated shape makes them easy to prepare for everyday meals. Grow them in a sunny garden bed, raised bed, or container where warm conditions and consistent moisture can support a generous harvest. This packet contains 100 non-GMO, heirloom seeds. \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(183, 11, 146);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAll American Selection.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(7, 74, 13);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGermination Rate: 85%.
