*Buyer to pay international shipping via PayPal.com. Check with your customs agencies regarding horticultural import laws.

75 days — The plants are upright, strong, and produce four or five fruits that are mostly four-lobed, blocky, and 4 by 4½ inches with thick flesh that is mild and sweet.

These seeds are slow germinators.. Give them more time than most other vegetable plants seeds.

A good feeding of manure tea each week.. Plants can live up to two years! Great for containers too.

Pinch off a few flowers at first as so, the plant doesn't over produce. You'll have larger peppers if you grow about 6-8 at a time on each plant rather than over whelming the plants.

*Be sure to save seeds from the bell peppers because, these are heirloom plants. Can be used to grow even more plants!

Plants can grow throughout the year if you reside in warmer climate regions as like southern California. Pretty to use as edible landscaping too! Plant a row instead of hedge!

Companion planting: Bell peppers shouldn't be grown in the company of plants like kohlrabi, fennel, beans and members of the Brassica family, like cabbage and broccoli. These plants tend to compete with peppers for soil nutrition. Apricot trees can be harmed if bell peppers are grown close to them. The pepper plant is perennially vulnerable to a typical type of fungus. Although, this fungus doesn't cause too much damage to the pepper, it can cause rotting in the apricot tree.

Easy to freeze! Cut, place on baking pan, freeze then place in freezer bag.

I learned the hardway when it came to freezing things. On my first try.. I spend an afternoon chopping, dicing and bagging. The following weekend I had a few friends coming to dinner and I told myself that I had everything I needed in the freezer and pantry.. Well ... sigh.. When I took peppers and tomatoes out of the freezer.. they were like mini icebergs.. They tasted funny too. There's nothing like the school of hardknocks and a bit of embarrassment from friends to teach a person to make the effort into learning how to do things the right way, aye? Cheers ~LosAngeles

Eazy breazy to freeze. :O) After cutting bell peppers the way you like them (diced, julienne, large cubes, etc) lay on a baking sheet or cake pan and completely freeze. Be sure to do this before placing in a freezer back or storage container.

If you don't lay out the cut peppers and freeze first before placing in freezer bag or storage container.. ...you'll have one big clump of bell peppers. After the bell peppers are completely frozen and then placed in a freezer bag... when you're ready to use them... they fall out of the bag in idividual pieces. You can take out what you need. Believe me.. if you don't cut your peppers and freeze first.. you'll have one huge pepper cicle on your hands.

This freezing method is standard for most vegetables and fruits.

Cheers,
