Sweet Pepper - Red Lunchbox (Young Plant)

Sweet and flavorful red snack peppers.

These beautiful, mini-sized peppers are delicious sautéed, as an addition to salads and, perfect for a healthy snack. Smooth red fruits average 2-2 1/2" long by 1" wide, making them the smallest color of the trio, but they make up for their size with extra sweetness. All three varieties have tall, strong plants that yield well for snack-type peppers.  Lunchbox types are available in red, orange, and yellow.

Suggestions: Peppers need a warm soil and night temperature to prosper. They will stunt under 10C. Location should be sheltered from the wind and soil should be kept reasonably moist. Be sure to harden off the seedlings to reduce transplant stress. Harvest fruit early and often. The more you pick the more they will produce. Do not pull off fruit, rather cut from stems.


Pot size: Minimum 12" per plant or plant in ground 12" away from next plant.
