Notes

'Vinedale' pepper (Capsicum annuum 'Vinedale') 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 grows upright at a moderate pace and can handle dry spells. Deer tend to browse other plants first. Birds visit it.

Pairs well with Tomato, Candy carrot, and Dark Opal basil.
