Product Details

All three of these delectable sweet peppers start out green and then sweeten as they transform into their ripe color, although delicious at any stage. Heirloom 'Yolo Wonder' (red color seeds) turns bright red and is resistant to tobacco mosaic virus. 'Coral Belle' (natural color seeds) turns intense orange, and 'Canary Belle' (yellow color seeds) turns a brilliant yellow. These 3½"–4" hefty peppers grow well in containers too.

    The heirloom Yolo Wonder from this pack grew INCREDIBLY WELL outside Houston, Texas zone 9a. We have brutally hot summers but this one handled the heat just fine. It is mid-October and we are still harvesting bell peppers. Plant was prolific, producing 16-17 bells and was horribly neglected, not getting regular fertilizing once it got hot. Still produced really well!
