King of the North Bell Pepper Seedling

King of the North Bell Pepper is one of the most reliable and productive bell peppers for northern gardens. It is known for its ability to produce substantial, blocky peppers in short, cool seasons. The plants are sturdy and upright, with thick-walled, lobed fruits that ripen from bright green to vivid red and get even sweeter as they do. Fruit can be picked once it is firm and has reached desired size, however, sweetness can increase dramatically as the fruit ripens. If you pick the peppers when they are still young/green, the plant will keep producing more fruit. Fruit that sets after late August will not usually develop or ripen.

To get the most out of your plants, they will need

• Full sun
• Soil should have abundant phosphorus and calcium
• Will tolerate dry soil, but they will only put on good growth if kept moist but not sopping wet.
• Container Friendly, 5 gallon containers work well, but require good drainage and regular irrigation.
• I always add 1/2 cup each of bone & blood meal as well as all-purpose fertilizer of choice such as rabbit poop, or compost underneath seedling and water well before planting.

Pickup is only available at the end of May, I cannot safely get them to you through courier or post…
