Is it more or are mini-sweet peppers impossible to find in seed or 6 pack? The website of the company package them for the grocers says they are being bred with little or no seeds. and if seeds, mostly sterile. That just seems wrong. They want a patent on it? Don't bees do pollunation? are we suppose to butt in? I am saving and drying what seeds I do find hoping for the few that will sprout next year ... too sad for this year :( any thoughts? any heirloom hanging around that I can get for next year?
whats a girl to do!

Not sure if it is the same type but I saved seeds from a mini bell pepper a couple years ago and have been growing them ever since so you may have good luck getting those few seeds to germinate. I am not sure if they are a hybrid though. Kim
