I had a customer come into my garden center today and ask for "those mini sweet peppers. you know, the ones grocery stores sell". I have no idea what those peppers are. I suggested a sweet pimento, but they wanted the grocery store was selling.

I linked to what I think the person was talking about.

I don't have an answer but I've had success growing them from seeds saved from when I've bought them at the grocery store. This year I'm going to test out Healthy peppers, no idea how similar they'll be.

Good to know - I'm trying this for the first time this year.

Any luck with growing second generation seeds from the plants you grew?

I haven't tried that yet since I had so many seeds from the grocery store lot.
