Notes
'Pathfinder' pepper (Capsicum annuum 'Pathfinder') 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 grows upright at a moderate pace and has a long shelf life after harvest. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal.
Pairs well with Diva cucumber, Dark Opal basil, and Cannellini bean.
