Notes
'Mardarin Orange' sweet bell pepper (Capsicum annuum 'Mardarin Orange') is a vegetable for food gardens, borders, and accents. 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 is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. It blooms from early to late summer and tolerates drought.
Pairs well with Holy basil, Iceberg lettuce, and Salad burnet.
