Notes
'Cornito Pepper Mix' pepper (Capsicum annuum 'Cornito Pepper Mix') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal. Its erect plants bear rose blooms, tolerate drought, and attract birds.
Pairs well with Dark Opal basil, Straight-8 cucumber, and Salad burnet.
