Aji Dulce Pepper

The infamous seasoning pepper. Bred from spicy peppers for nematode resistance but without the heat. They look like one just don't taste like one and have a nice depth of flavor. Can be eaten raw as a bell pepper substitute or cooked in dishes like sofrito. These far outshine bell peppers here for production and can live several years in south or central Florida if protected from frosts. Be aware that these are known to take significantly longer to germinate than many other peppers, sometimes a month or more. But they are worth the wait since they produce for such a long time. Peppers like regular fertilization to produce well. Offer a liquid fertilizer every 3-4 weeks.
