Notes

'Manganji Sweet Pepper' (Capsicum annuum 'Manganji Sweet Pepper') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. It is tender to cold, and the first hard frost will kill it. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy or loamy soil. It reaches 24 to 59 inches tall and attracts butterflies, bees, and birds. Deer tend to browse other plants first.

Pairs well with Tomato, Candy carrot, and Purple Ruffles basil.
