About this product
The ‘King of Sweet Peppers’! Plants produce large 18cm long and 13cm wide (approx.) attractive blocky fruits that ripen from green to bright red. Best started early, plants enjoy heat and humidity and are best grown under glass or on a sunny windowsill. Ideal for stuffing.
Sow seed on the surface of a good, free-draining, damp seed compost and cover with a fine sprinkling of compost or vermiculite. Place in a propagator or seal container in a polythene bag and keep at 25°C (77°F) until after germination which usually takes up to 14 days. Transplant seedlings when large enough to handle into 7.5cm (3in) pots. Reduce temperature and maintain at 15°C (59°F).
