PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a pimiento's two-kind laterally multi-branched seedling high in percentage of rootage of grafting, and capable of harvesting a lot of pimientos using a small-sized pot and a small amount of culture soil in a small seeded in a short period of raising seedling. SOLUTION: This pimiento's two-kind laterally multi-branched seedling is obtained through the following process: using two kinds of scion seedlings each with a cotyledon and a plurality of leaves: cutting respective stems of the scion seedlings each at a point between the cotyledon and a first leaf to separate each stem into the lower part and the upper part; grafting the upper part of one of the two kinds of seedlings to the lower part of the other kind; with the resultant graft, grafting the upper part of the remaining one kind to the lower part of the other kind to make a grafted seedling; nipping off each of the grafted seedlings at the portion upper than the second leaf on the upper part so as to make the lateral branch shoot each from the base of the cotyledon and the leaf each of the lower part and the upper part to make them grow. Alternatively, the subject seedling can be obtained through the following process: using two kinds scion seedlings with a cotyledon and the plurality of leaves and a rootstock seedling; cutting respective scion seedlings at a point between the cotyledon and a first leaf and a point just under the cotyledon to make respective scions each with cotyledons for respective kinds; grafting these scions to the rootstock seedling in series so as to make lateral branches shoot each from the base of the cotyledons of the respective kinds to make them grow.
