About this pepper

Mini Yellow Bell, also sold as Miniature Yellow Bell, is a small sweet bell pepper grown for tiny fruit that ripen from green to yellow. Pods may be upright or pendant.

Typical pod size is about 2.5–4 cm long and 2.5–4 cm wide. Plants are compact, usually 30.5–45.5 cm tall.

It is commonly used for snacking and small stuffing because the fruit are small, fairly blocky, and often produced in clusters on short plants.

Seed Savers Exchange links the miniature yellow and red bell types to Lucina Cress of Ohio, who used them for stuffed, pickled, and canned peppers sold at local bazaars.

Days to maturity are often listed at 60–70 days after transplanting, and some sellers describe it as early. Other listings claim closer to 90 days, which does not align with early-season descriptions and may reflect strain variation or differing seller measurements.
