#3660 Robustini Pepperoncini Peppers: 62 days
Peter Piper - please note this mild, flattened somewhat irregular shaped pale pepper, popular for pickling. Also known as pepperoncini, Robustini produces loads of pendant peppers on sturdy plants. The thin-fleshed pods are tangy, but barely on the Scoville scale at 500 to 800 units - mild enough for everyone’s taste! This popular pepper is found in pickled form, in sandwich chains, pizza parlors and Italian delicatessens everywhere. Robustini turns from light green to pale yellow-green; harvest before it reddens and the flesh loses its crunch. Packet of 25 Seeds / $1.95 http://www.kitchengardenseeds.com/cgi-bin/catview.cgi?_fn=Product&_category=30

Golden Greek Pepperoncini - #9313 (30 seeds) $1.85
This strain from Greece is somewhat rare and prized by those who want the peppers for pickling. Because they are smaller and lighter in color than the regular Pepperoncini, homemade jars of these golden peppers look more like the commercial product. Same thin-walled, slightly weinkled shape, and mildly hot flavor as the other Pepperoncini, and the perfect addition to Greek salads. 62 days.
