Quality Construction & Robust Growth

This Capsicum annuum variety is known for its sturdy stems and dense foliage, supporting heavy crops while resisting common garden pests.

Maintenance & Care

• Water regularly, especially during flowering and fruiting stages.
• Feed with a balanced fertiliser every few weeks for best results.
• Harvest when fruits are fully coloured but still firm—this encourages more peppers to set.
• Check leaves and stems periodically for signs of pests or disease; remove affected parts promptly if needed.
