Notes
'Giant Ristra F1' pepper (Capsicum annuum 'Giant Ristra F1') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It sits low on the menu for deer. Birds visit it, and it tolerates dry spells.
Pairs well with Tomato, Candy carrot, and Holy basil.
