Notes

'Lunchbox Yellow' snack pepper (Capsicum annuum 'Lunchbox Yellow') 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. Deer tend to browse other plants first. You can grow it for sweet and flavorful yellow snack peppers.

Pairs well with Dark Opal basil, Oregano, and Armenian cucumber.
