Purple Bell Chili Seeds
Information: Purple Bell is an aromatic, purple sweet bell pepper with beautiful and big blocky fruits. The peppers ripen from green to purple to red, but can be eaten in all stages of maturity, while developing the strongest sweetness when they are red. They are suitable for salads, stews, for pickling, raosting and especially good for stuffing. The plants remain relatively small, therefore this variety is also good for pot culture.
Care: Germination temperature is between 22°C and 28°C (germination period: 8-21 days); it is therefore recommended to use a greenhouse and a heating mat. The plants need fresh, well-fertilised, permeable soil, and do not tolerate waterlogging. They should be planted in a sunny, protected place with at least 6 hours of sunlight - preferably more. Put the plants outside approx. 2 to 3 weeks after the last frost.
