From mild bells to fiery chillies: a spectrum of capsicum varieties

From mild bells to searing chillies, this curated range of Pepper Seeds celebrates the diversity of Capsicum (Capsicum spp.). Beyond culinary value, plants bring an understated flowering display across warm months that helps sustain pollinating insects, followed by a vivid fruit set that adds ornamental interest in beds, borders, and patio containers. Compact and upright habits make many suitable for pots, while robust types suit open-ground growing or greenhouse benches. Choices span classic Bell Pepper Seeds and Hot Pepper Seeds to specialist Capsicum Seeds, reflecting a broad spectrum of shapes, sizes, and maturation times for fresh use, drying, roasting, or pickling.

The assortment covers heirloom pepper seeds, hybrid pepper seeds, and open-pollinated peppers, offering nuanced heat levels mapped along the Scoville heat scale and informed by capsaicin content. In this Pepper Seeds collection, expect familiar favourites such as jalapeño seeds, habanero seeds, serrano pepper seeds, and cayenne pepper seeds, alongside poblano seeds, shishito pepper seeds, banana pepper seeds, and paprika pepper seeds for sweet, smoky, or citrus-tinged profiles. In mixed plantings, companion planting peppers can enhance garden biodiversity and encourage beneficial activity, while container pepper growing provides reliable results where space is limited. Whether chosen for versatile kitchen use or as compact ornamentals, this Pepper Seeds selection supports productive harvests and an engaging seasonal display.

For dependable starts, sow indoors with gentle bottom warmth in late winter to early spring, then transplant after the last frost once nights remain consistently mild; plants thrive in full sun. Good airflow, regular staking of vigorous cultivars, and careful hardening off peppers help ensure sturdy growth in borders or containers. As fruits set continuously after each flush of bloom, the extended flowering window keeps beneficial insects visiting while prolonging the harvest period. With balanced fertility and attentive watering, Pepper Seeds reward growers with steady yields and attractive plants that suit balconies, kitchen gardens, and protected structures.

Capsicum (Capsicum spp.)

This range navigator connects the main vegetables collection with related categories for growers interested in capsicum and nearby crops. It spans hot types such as chili and paprika, fellow solanums like eggplant, and practical themes including annual choices, container-friendly picks, fast-growing selections, and organic options. Neighboring crops like cucumber are included to help plan beds with similar warmth needs, spacing considerations, and sowing windows after the last frost.

Capsicum (Capsicum spp.)

Grow peppers in full sun and warm conditions, in fertile, well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. Start seeds indoors in late winter to early spring with gentle bottom warmth; transplant after the last frost once nights stay warm. In long, warm seasons, direct sow only when soil is thoroughly warm. Keep seedlings evenly moist and bright; water established plants deeply but avoid waterlogging. Space plants about 45–60 cm (18–24 in) apart, allowing more room for vigorous or hot types. Mulch once soils have warmed to conserve moisture and heat. Many types—from sweet shishito and banana to jalapeño, poblano, cayenne and habanero—open-pollinated heirlooms and modern hybrids alike—thrive under these conditions; ventilated protection can help early crops.

  • For reliable germination, maintain 24–30°C at the root zone; gentle bottom heat speeds emergence. Sow 0.5–1 cm deep in a free-draining mix and keep evenly moist.
  • Harden off for 7–10 days before transplanting after the last frost and once nights are reliably mild; stake or cage taller plants to support heavy fruit loads.
  • Container suitable: use 10–15 L pots with free-draining, fertile mix; water deeply then allow the top to dry slightly; feed regularly and provide sturdy support.
  • Flowers are visited by generalist pollinators; plant nearby flowering herbs to encourage visits, provide airflow or gently tap blossoms to aid fruit set, and avoid broad-spectrum sprays during bloom.
  • Edible fruits range from sweet to very hot on the Scoville scale; handle hot types with care due to capsaicin in placental tissues; harvest at full color for best flavour.
  • Ornamental appeal: glossy foliage and color-changing fruit suit decorative borders and patios; compact or dwarf selections are especially showy.

When should I start pepper seeds before the last frost?

For most capsicum cultivation, seeds are started indoors in late winter to early spring, often about 8–10 weeks before the last expected frost. Use gentle bottom warmth and bright light to build sturdy transplants. Move plants outside only after the last frost, when nights stay reliably warm and soil has heated through. In areas with long, warm seasons, direct sowing is possible once the ground is thoroughly warm. Early-ripening types can reach maturity faster, but all peppers appreciate a head start and careful hardening off before transplanting.

How do I grow peppers from seed indoors successfully?

Sow in a fine, free-draining mix and supply bottom heat for seeds; an ideal pepper germination temperature is commonly in the warm range, encouraging quicker sprouting. Keep the medium evenly moist, not waterlogged, and provide strong light after emergence—under lights or in a bright greenhouse—to prevent legginess. Once seedlings have true leaves, pot on as needed and maintain steady warmth and airflow. Before transplanting peppers, harden them off gradually, then set into full sun and warm, fertile, well-drained soil enriched with organic matter.

What are the best pepper seeds for containers and small spaces?

Compact pepper plants for small spaces tend to be dwarf or naturally bushy forms, including many patio types and shorter-fruited selections such as shishito, jalapeño, cayenne, and some banana peppers. Full-size bell peppers for stuffing and taller poblanos can be grown in large containers but need more root volume and staking. Choose container pepper growing mixes that drain well yet hold moisture, and site pots in full sun. Consistent watering and nutrition support steady fruiting. Heat ranges vary—from mild to hot—often described along the Scoville heat scale.

How far apart should I plant pepper seedlings in the garden?

Space plants about 45–60 cm (18–24 in) apart, allowing extra room for vigorous or very hot types that can become bushier. This spacing promotes airflow, which helps limit disease pressure and eases maintenance like staking pepper plants as fruit sets. Transplant into warm, fertile, well-drained soil enriched with organic matter, and keep the bed in full sun. Water deeply but avoid saturation, mulch to retain soil warmth, and support plants as needed, especially heavier-fruited bells, paprikas, and similar open-pollinated peppers.

Do pepper flowers need pollinators, and how can I support them?

Peppers are largely self-pollinating, yet bees, hoverflies, and other beneficials visiting the flowers can improve fruit set through movement and vibration. The blossoms offer modest nectar and pollen, so a pepper patch can contribute to a pollinator-friendly garden. In sheltered spaces, gentle airflow or a light tap of the plant can aid pollen transfer. Avoid harsh pesticides during bloom, and plant nearby companion flowers and herbs to sustain visitors. Capsaicin content is in the fruit, not the flowers, so pollinators are unaffected when foraging.

Can I save seeds from open-pollinated or heirloom pepper plants?

Seeds from open-pollinated and heirloom pepper seeds can be saved and grown with similar traits, while hybrid pepper seeds may not come true. Select fully ripe fruits (often turning red, yellow, or orange), remove seeds, and dry them thoroughly before storage in a cool, dry place. To maintain varietal purity, separate different peppers or bag blossoms, as cross-pollination can occur within compatible Capsicum groups. Label carefully—e.g., jalapeño seeds, serrano pepper seeds, paprika pepper seeds—and keep only clean, mature seed for best viability.

Information compiled from horticultural texts, publicly available trial data, and supplier specifications. Cultivar descriptions and performance claims reflect typical industry standards, including germination and purity thresholds, and are aligned with applicable quality and phytosanitary practices. Guidance is general and may vary with microclimate, soil, hardiness zone, and hemisphere. Product pages and labels provide batch-specific instructions and legal notices where relevant. Local regulations on seed movement, invasive risk, and plant health certifications may apply.

From mild bells to fiery chillies: a spectrum of capsicum varieties

Pepper seeds encompass a wide range of flavors and heat levels, from crisp, sweet bells to intense chillies. For best results, sow indoors in warm conditions, keeping the medium at 24–30°C for steady germination. Plant seeds shallowly, maintain even moisture, and provide bright light to prevent leggy growth. Transplant after the last frost date, once nights are reliably mild, into fertile, well-drained soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Space plants 40–50 cm apart and position in full sun. Support taller varieties with stakes, and feed moderately to encourage flowers and fruit rather than excess foliage. Consistent watering and a mulch layer help reduce stress during hot spells and maintain soil moisture. In still conditions, gently tapping open blossoms can improve fruit set. Harvest at the desired stage, from firm green to full mature color, noting that heat typically intensifies with ripeness. In protected settings, later sowings may be possible where seasons remain mild.
