Cuneo Giallo Yellow Bell Pepper Seeds

Information: The Cuneo Giallo Yellow Bell Pepper is one of the oldest varieties of Italian pepper and originates from the Piedmont region, which is famous for its culinary specialities.

Cuneo Giallo bell peppers are highly fertile and very well-suited for potted cultivation, although they also thrive outdoors in sheltered positions. The fruits are bright yellow, sweet peppers that aren’t spicy at all. Thanks to its fleshy outer layer, it has a succulent, juicy taste and is perfect for stuffing, for example with minced beef and then roasting in the oven. However, they also add a special twist to any salad with their brilliant yellow colour.

Care: Germination temperature is between 20°C  and 28°C (germination period: 7-18 days); it is therefore recommended to use a greenhouse and a heating mat. The plants need fresh, well-fertilised permeable soil and should not be left in standing water. They should be placed in a sunny, sheltered place with at least 6 hours of sunlight per day, if not more. Take care to place Cuneo Giallo Yellow Bell Peppers in a sunny position when planting them outside (do not do so until after the last frost). To keep them over the winter, cut them back by 20cm after harvesting and place them in a pot in a light place where it is at least 15°C.
