Compact medium headed heritage variety with very few outer leaves and a large ice white heart. Leaves are exceedingly crisp, succulent and tender. Great in salads.
Sow seeds in successive crops every 2 weeks from April to August, as long as weather is cool.
Harvest by pulling the entire plant or cutting leaves at least 2 cm above the base to encourage new leaf growth.
These 75cm sturdy plants produce very mild fruit. Sweet peppers are 4 lobed and average 10cm long and 7cm wide. Thick deep green flesh ripens to a deep scarlet. Great for flavouring, pickling, stuffing, and salads.
Start indoors mid-February to late March in a soilless medium. Grow seedlings under bright light at 18°C. Transplant after hardening off in late May.
Keep evenly watered. Avoid high nitrogen fertilizers. Harvest after colour changes for the best taste and quality.
Thick walled, very pungent dark green fruits that average 9cm long by 4cm wide and turn red at maturity. Makes an eye watering addition to salsa and dips. this is also an excellent variety for pickling.
