I got these seeds quickly, they were in good shape, and they are sprouting well. We will see how they grow, as there hasn't been enough time.
Added in October: I am now getting little peppers on the plants, which took some time to grow because they are in partial shade in my greenhouse that is a converted covered porch. They are flowering very well now, and are a perfect size to pick and use 1 or 2 as flavoring in recipes.
I am very happy with these Mini Bell peppers and would recommend them to anyone that has a small area they want to raise peppers in, to use as flavor enhancers.
By the way, for novice gardeners, it helps to touch the flowers to another flower on the pepper plants, to make sure they are fertilized so you can be sure to get the peppers to grow. It's very simple, just put the faces together and touch them lightly to each other, making sure the center white stamen (a little stalk) touches the outer ring of pistils (stalks with little ball shaped pollen carriers). Works really well.
Additional September 1, 2011: I still have two of these pepper plants that survived the cold last winter in my greenhouse. They frosted back quite a bit in my unheated greenhouse, but when it turned warm sprang back and have been bearing cute little tasty peppers all summer long.
I also found that to fertilize the flowers, all you have to do is shake the branch the flower is on.
These are really good for a greenhouse, and for those that want to have a bit of fresh pepper in recipes without having to cut a whole large pepper. Wonderful plants!

The seeds arrived quickly and I was pleased to receive information about seed germination with the seed packets. Planted the seeds immediately and they are all growing. Hope the peppers are as good as I expect them to be.

I bought these because I have seen them growing elsewhere and they produce lots of these little peppers especialy if you start them early. These plants produce along time if you let them and they are small bushy and colorful to lighten up any landscape. I got my product lightning fast.

When I purchased these seeds from Hirt's they were $1.99 but are now selling for $8.99 and now I know why. Maybe I just got a bad lot of seeds but I was not at all impressed. Read more
