Notes
'Jimmy Nardello' pepper (Capsicum annuum 'Jimmy Nardello') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It sits low on the menu for deer. This heirloom has an erect habit and attracts birds.
Pairs well with Holy basil, Armenian cucumber, and SuperBlue lavender.
