Pepper, Jimmy Nardello
Pepper, Jimmy Nardello
The Jimmy Nardello pepper, an Italian heirloom variety cherished for its sweet, fruity flavor with no heat, is ideal for home gardeners looking for an easy-to-grow, versatile culinary pepper. Originating from Italy and brought to the US by the Nardello family, this pepper is perfect for frying, roasting, or adding fresh to salads due to its thin skin and delicious taste. It matures to a bright red, offering a slightly smoky and exceptionally sweet flavor when fully ripe. Known for its productivity and disease resistance, the Jimmy Nardello pepper thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, reaching a harvest-ready state faster than many varieties, with plants typically producing multiple waves of fruit before the frost.

Shipping Live Plants
Live plants, particularly annual vegetables, can be quite delicate. To ensure their safe arrival in optimal condition, we take several precautionary measures:
-
Rigorous hardening off process: We prepare the plants to be resilient enough for their journey by gradually acclimating them to outdoor conditions.
-
Application of organic prebiotics and supplements: We treat plants with natural products to enhance their health and vigor before they make the journey.
-
Development of a strong root system: We prioritize cultivating a robust root system so the plants can quickly adapt and flourish upon arrival.
-
Custom packing materials: We use specially designed packing materials to secure and protect the plants during transit, minimizing the risk of damage and ensuring they arrive in the best possible condition.
Our live plants are sold in 3-inch pots and can be shipped to all US states, with the exception of Alaska, Hawaii, California, Oregon, and Washington state. We utilize Priority Mail for shipping to ensure a speedy delivery and ship only on Mondays to ensure no plants languish in mailrooms over the weekend.
While you can order whatever your desired quantity of plants is, our packaging is for plants in sets of 3. Thus, flat rate shipping is in multiples of 3, starting with 1-3 plants for $14. The shipping cost will auto-populate at checkout.
