Notes

'Flaming Flare' pepper (Capsicum annuum 'Flaming Flare') is a vegetable for borders, containers, and food gardens. 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. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal. The peppers mature in 67 days.

Pairs well with Genovese basil, Supersweet 100 tomato, and Asparagus.
