Description
This red, medium-vigorous block bell pepper is very suitable for cold cultivation and grows up to 90 cm/35.4 in high. "Bendigo", with its very early maturity, is one of the first red peppers you can harvest fresh from your own garden or greenhouse. The yield of large, thick-walled, crunchy, spicy-aromatic fruits weighing about 140 g is enormous. This great, vitamin-packed bell pepper will add culinary flavor to any salad, raw vegetable platter and some hearty soups. This high quality F1 hybrid is naturally resistant to tobamovirus. Among other things, this given resistance makes the plants grow additionally lush, so that multiple harvests will also be possible.
