Sheepnose Sweet Pepper
Sheepnose Sweet Pepper is a stocky, distinctive heirloom named for its unique blunt, rounded shape — resembling, unmistakably, the nose of a sheep. Its thick, sweet walls are exceptional for stuffing with rice, cheese, and herbs, as the compact shape holds fillings beautifully and the walls are thick enough to stand up to roasting without collapsing. The flavor is mild, fruity, and very sweet, ripening from green to brilliant red with intensified sweetness as it matures.
