PostHeaderIcon Pepper Seed Varieties

I love peppers, so I am always on the lookout for new pepper seed sources.  Sometimes I like hot (chile) peppers, other times I want the sweeter (bell, banana) peppers for my palate.

So was I ever surprised when I found some neat pepper seeds where I didn’t expect them — ebay!

Chile Pepper Seeds

Now when I say chile pepper, I am including all the hot peppers – not just the ones with “chile” as part of their name.  And there are lots and lots of hot pepper seeds to pick!

Some of the hot pepper seed varieties I saw included

  • Tomato Red Bush – Who Are You?
