Notes
'Purple Beauty' pepper (Capsicum annuum 'Purple Beauty') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. It is not cold-hardy and will not survive freezing temperatures. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Deer rarely make it their first choice. The bush matures in about 75 days and attracts birds.
Pairs well with Holy basil, Green bean, and SuperBlue lavender.
