'Murasaki Purple Sweet Pepper' (Capsicum annuum 'Murasaki Purple Sweet Pepper') is a vegetable for the food garden, 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 or loamy soil. It blooms in spring, summer, and autumn, and bees and butterflies visit the flowers. Deer rarely make it their first choice.
Pairs well with Tomato, Candy carrot, and Dark Opal basil.
