Description

Patio type pepper.  They are symmetrical, with three to four lobes and excellent color. Redskin Sweet pepper is commonly called the ‘Patio Pepper’. That is because the dwarf bush height of 8-14″ is super manageable in a container placed on your patio. The plant is not that tall, well-branched and has a crowded set of exceptionally sweet flavored red fruits hanging around on the bush. The red-red 4- to 5-inch fruit are an an eye catcher in any location, looking huge on this dwarf plant. The bells are symmetrical, with three to four lobes and excellent color. Proof you don’t have to have a large vegetable garden to grow your own. Even the smallest patio or balcony can accommodate a few containers that will give you a bumper crop of delicious fresh organic veggies. A naturally dwarf pepper producing good yields of sweet-flavoured blocky green fruits, up to 80g in weight, which mature to a deep red. Ideal for windowsill or conservatory too. RHS Award of Garden Merit winner.
