Sweet Pepper Candy Cane Red F1

This is a snack pepper with unique, eye-catching variegated foliage and fruit that ripen from green striped to solid red. The fruit feature a sweet flavour, thin walls and a crispy texture, and they are perfect for fresh eating at any stage of ripeness. The plants grow to a height of 46-61cm and are ideal for patio containers.

Sow indoors from January to April, in soil 0.5 cm deep, in separate pots if possible. Pot on in late May outdoors either in containers as patio plants or in a well protected site. Peppers can be slow to germinate so allow 35+ days. Compost should not be too moist to prevent the seeds from rotting.
