Peppers Under 24" in Height

[Shawn]

I have been going thru the slew of catalogs I have received.  I am noticing some Pepper plants that are stated to grow 24" or less.  So I have decided to make a list of what I have seen so far for anyone interested.  I have not grown any except for the first one listed.

Please add any you have grown (with the height and vendor) and I will add it to this list.  Once added your comment will be removed.

I will add more as I continue to go thru the catalogs and will make a follow up post when additions are made. 

Lastly, keep in mind this is not a full list, just those I came across

Another good short pepper is the Firecracker. Grows 2 feet or less and a foot and a half diameter or so but produces a ton of peppers each harvest. It's in the mid 5-figures on the scoville range too so a great pepper for general cooking if you want more than a jalapeno but aren't feeling too adventurous.  I'm also growing a Bhut Jolokia in a harvest (only plant in the unit) but gotta FIM those so they bush out. Still, they are around 2 feet tall at the low end full grown (but can get as big as 4 feet so you really gotta get snippy)

April 19th, I planted Mini Bell Pepper Mix from Baker seed.

All germinated. The description sounds very similar to the Park one you listed.

"The plant produces heavy yields of 1 ¼" long by 1 ¼" wide sweet bell peppers on 24" plants. Peppers turn from green to yellow and red when mature. "

I started the seeds in AeroGarden, but will transfer them to an EarthBox this Saturday. Currently doing well in the hardening off process. I'm wondering if I received a seed of a different variety because it's twice as tall as the others and progressing faster. I plan to transfer them to an Earthbox, so I'll watch that one and see if I can tell why it's behaving differently.

I think small rings of this bell pepper would be very pretty in a salad.

They look beautiful, elainev.

Mke is growing some in his Grow Along. So far he has gotten chocolate and orange ones.

If one of yours is growing so much bigger, it will be very interesting to see how it does in an Earrth Box.

I found this site that specializes in mini tomatoes, sweet peppers, and hot peppers.
I got Cocoa tomato seeds from Parks, I think. Transplanted them into my Slim

That site is new to me, penguicular. The photos are lovely!
