Notes
'Super Chili' pepper (Capsicum annuum 'Super Chili') 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, loamy, or clay soil. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. Birds visit the plant, and it tolerates drought once settled.
Pairs well with Tomato, Candy carrot, and Thai basil.
