Notes
'SVPB8862' pepper (Capsicum annuum 'SVPB8862') 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 sits low on the menu for deer. Birds visit the plant, and it tolerates drought.
Pairs well with Mountain Magic tomato, Holy basil, and Margarita cucumber.
