Notes
'Black Pearl' pepper (Capsicum 'Black Pearl') is a vegetable for low maintenance food gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It blooms from early to late summer and reaches 12 to 18 inches tall. Deer tend to pass it by.
Pairs well with Eggplant, Kent Beauty oregano, and Seychelles bean.
