Notes

'Hot Pops Yellow' ornamental pepper (Capsicum annuum 'Hot Pops Yellow') is a vegetable for borders, accents, and food gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It blooms from early to late summer and attracts birds. Deer tend to pass it by.

Pairs well with Holy basil, Salad burnet, and Egyptian walking onion.
