Along with feta cheese, olives and eggs, sweet peppers, tomatoes and cucumber are staple breakfast components in Turkey. Also known as Mazamort, Tatlı Üçburun is a sweet pepper variety that is part of the breakfast tradition. Fruits have thin flesh, and are crunchy and delicious. This variety resembles Shishito but fruits are bigger than those of Shishito. Plants are prolific.
We expect Tatlı Üçburun sweet pepper to quickly become one of the favorite CSA varieties for farmers across the U.S. in a few years.
Our current seed stock was grown by the farmers at Uprising Seeds in Bellingham, WA. Many thanks to co-owner and seed grower Brian Campbell who have been very supportive to our company.

What a fantastic pepper! Again, 2022 was a tough year for gardening in my upper midwest zone, but these plants flourished and produced nonstop, thin skinned, shiny, tasty peppers that I used over and over. I grew it both in garden beds and in a container on my porch.

Plants were productive, usually producing 2-3 ready at a time over the summer. These were very tasty and we found that, unlike bell peppers, they did not produce digestive upset in our family. We ate these both green and red since the description did not specify when to harvest.
