Description
Sweet pointed bell pepper with loose, tall growth. The elongated fruits quickly turn from light green to orange and have a length of about 20-22 cm/7.9-8.7 in. Long fruiting life after harvest. Robust plants that continue to produce fruit to maturity even towards the end of cultivation in cooler weather. Very good, sweet taste. Resistant to tobamovirus. Also for greenhouse. Planting in greenhouse from mid-March. Germination after 15-25 days at 22-26°C/72-79°F. (From Bingenheimer Saatgut).

Not frost resistant
Growing tips
Sowing peppers need a lot of heat for germination (25-28°C/77-82°F). Too low temperatures are the most common cause of failure to sprout bell pepper seeds. After pricking out, place in a cooler place, 20-22°C/68-72°F in a bright place is ideal. Harden off seedlings before setting out and protect with a fleece during cool nights. Also thrives well on the balcony in large enough planters. (From Bingenheimer Saatgut).
