Notes
'Cubanelle Sweet Pepper' (Capsicum annuum 'Cubanelle Sweet Pepper') 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 or loamy soil. Deer rarely make it their first choice. Bees, butterflies, and birds visit it, and it handles dry spells well.
Pairs well with Tomato, Candy carrot, and Dark Opal basil.
