Notes

'Huntington' pepper (Capsicum annuum 'Huntington') 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 has resistance to TSWV for the West Coast. It sits low on the menu for deer.

Pairs well with Lemon cucumber, Holy basil, and Salad burnet.
