Early California Wonder Bell Pepper

Capsicum annuum

Days to Maturity: 65-70 from transplant

An early-adapted selection of California Wonder Bell Pepper, the all-time most popular open-pollinated bell pepper. These seeds yield fruits slightly earlier and are accustomed to a cooler & harsher growing season compared to the typical California Wonder. The largest heirloom bell pepper available! This pepper is your perfect wide pepper for stuffing. Also fantastic sliced raw over salads, sauteéd, and used in any recipe you would use a store-bought bell.

Known for its disease resistance, especially to the Tobacco Mosaic Virus, this variety offers a reliable option for gardeners seeking a flavorful, blocky pepper with a firm, meaty texture. 

Great for container gardens, raised beds, greenhouse growing and in-ground growing.
