JIMMY NARDELLO ITALIAN #PP143<br />

This fine Italian pepper was grown each year by Giuseppe<br />

and Angella Nardiello at their garden in the village of<br />

Ruoti, in Southern Italy. In 1887 they set sail with their<br />

one-year-old daughter Anna for a new life in the USA.<br />

When they reached these shores, they settled and<br />

gardened in Naugatuck, Connecticut, and grew this same<br />

pepper that was named for their fourth son Jimmy. This<br />

long, thin-skinned frying pepper dries easily and has such<br />

a rich flavor that this variety has been placed in “The Ark<br />

of Taste” by the Slow Food organization. Ripens to a deep<br />

red, is very prolific, and does well in most areas. Pkt $2.50<br />

KING OF THE NORTH #PP131 New!<br />
