Overview
Annual Pepper Seeds Capsicum annuum 50 pcs popular kitchen vegetable with elongated fruits for sowing in the garden, on the balcony or in containers

The annual pepper is among the most popular vegetables in our gardens and its cultivation has been established in Czech cuisine for centuries as a base for many traditional dishes. This package contains 50 seeds, allowing you to grow your own supply of peppers right at home. The variety originates from the tropical regions of Central and South America, from where it spread practically all over the world after the discovery of America. A characteristic feature of the plant is the elongated, gradually ripening fruits, which initially have a yellowish to cream colour and gradually ripen to a deep red. The fruits are harvested at various stages of ripeness according to their use – young for crunchy salads, fully ripe for a more pronounced taste and aroma. This variety will be appreciated by any gardener, self-sufficient individual, lover of quality vegetables, or supporter of home-grown fruit vegetables.

Contents of the package:

  • 50 seeds of Capsicum annuum

For a successful start, it is advisable to pre-cultivate the seeds in trays or seedling pots on a windowsill from February or March, so that the seedlings have enough time to grow before being transplanted outdoors. Germination occurs best at a stable temperature above 22 °C, and then transplant the seedlings into individual rooted cups. After the last spring frosts, transplant the plants to their permanent location – ideally in a sunny, warm bed or a large container, where they have enough space for full development. The plants will appreciate regular watering, light fertilising with nitrogen-potassium fertilisers, and if necessary, support to prevent branches from breaking under the weight of the fruits. This package of 50 seeds of Capsicum annuum provides enough seeds for planting a whole family plot and will ensure you have fresh peppers from summer until the first autumn frosts.
