Sweet Pepper Redskin Plant (2L Pot)

A compact, award-winning sweet pepper variety known for its heavy cropping, crisp texture and exceptionally sweet flavour. 

Sweet Pepper 'Redskin' is a naturally dwarf, high-yielding variety that delivers impressive harvests from a remarkably compact plant. Producing an abundance of blocky, thick-walled peppers, the fruits mature from dark green to a rich, glossy red, developing their sweetest flavour as they ripen. With plants typically reaching just 45–70 cm tall, Redskin is ideal for pots, containers, patios and windowsills, making it one of the best sweet peppers for gardeners with limited growing space. Its reliable performance and excellent fruit quality have earned it the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit (AGM).

Our sweet pepper plants are professionally grown in high-quality peat-free compost and freshly delivered directly from our UK nursery in Yorkshire, in plastic-free, giftable packaging. Supplied as strong, healthy and fully established plants in generous 2-litre pots, they feature vigorous root systems and sturdy growth, allowing them to establish quickly and begin producing abundant crops of sweet, colourful peppers throughout the season.
