Learning how to grow peppers from seed is thrifty, fun and largely rewarding. Not only will the fragrant plants look impressive growing on your windowsill (that's right) no need for a greenhouse) but the variety of fruits to cultivate is much wider than the usual red, green or orange we are restricted to at most supermarkets.
Once harvested, sweet peppers are delicious in salads, and Italian dishes and can be frozen as well as pickled. Originating from the South American genus, Capsicum, sweet and bell peppers are super easy to grow at home, just like growing chilli peppers.
