Introducing the Ajvarski Pepper – the aromatic sensation that puts your garden on the map! Standing proud at two feet, these stocky plants produce 6- to 7-inch, broadly wedge-shaped pods that transition from vibrant green to a deep, luscious red. These thick-fleshed wonders are not just for show – they are the stars of traditional Macedonian cuisine. Roasted on flat metal stoves, peeled, and ground into the heavenly relish known as ajvar, these peppers elevate your bread-spread game, especially when paired with sirenje, a local cheese reminiscent of feta. Feeling adventurous? Stuff them with ground meat, rice, or cheese, bake, and savor the taste of the famous Macedonian roasting pepper in every delicious bite!
AJVARSKI PEPPER
Choosing between the 4" pot pepper start and the pepper plant in a 3-gallon grow bag with support stakes depends on your gardening style and space. If you're the hands-in-the-dirt type, ready to plant directly into a garden bed or a container of your choice, the 4" pot is your green ticket. On the flip side, if you're new to gardening, have limited space, or perhaps you're a renter without the option of an in-ground garden, the 3-gallon grow bag is your hassle-free hero. Complete with support stakes, it's a portable garden solution, bringing the joy of growing peppers to any patio or balcony. At mM/PLANTS, we've got the perfect plant for every gardener's needs!
