Stocky Red Roaster Seeds

Stocky Red Roaster is an open-pollinated (OP) pepper that is a great alternative to hybrid Italian fryer peppers. It has the same great characteristics, and because it is OP, you can save seeds for next season. Save seeds from robust fruit and vigorous plants.

This delicious sweet pepper measures 4–6” in length and 2” wide at the shoulders. A very productive tall 3’ plant with a leafy canopy to protect peppers from sun-scald. Fruit ripens from green to a smooth glossy vibrant red when fully mature. We call this beautiful pepper our Stocky Red Rooster.
