Title: What is the closest to the Peppadew?
Post by: Rowen on September 15, 2011, 14:51:44
Hey All,

I understand about the Peppadew being protected and not being able to obtain the seeds easily, so, what pepper can I grow which will be similar to these - something I can purchase in the UK?

Thank you for your suggestions.

You could try Rodeo F1. Similar size and shape and are supposed to have a sweetness to them as well as some heat:

Thank you, I'll look to give them a go.  I'll also take additional suggestions if anyone has them!

Thanks.
