Notes
'Cayennetta F1' pepper (Capsicum annuum 'Cayennetta F1') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. Birds visit it, and it tolerates dry spells.
Pairs well with Tomato, Candy carrot, and Holy basil.
