Thompson and Morgan Pepper Sweet Flamingo Plant in Pot 9cm

Bring a vibrant spectrum to your garden with these colour-changing peppers! Starting white, they evolve through shades of yellow, apricot, and orange before ripening to a deep red. Enjoy their sweetness at any stage. These peppers offer improved yields and larger fruits compared to Gypsy Bell peppers, along with good resistance to Tomato Mosaic Virus.For optimal growth, cultivate them under cover in a greenhouse or polytunnel, or choose a sunny, sheltered spot outdoors. Pot up young plants and nurture them in warm, frost-free conditions. Once established, transplant into grow bags, containers, or well-prepared beds with fertile, well-drained soil. If growing outdoors, gradually acclimatise plants to outdoor conditions over 7-10 days before transplanting, spacing them 50cm (20") apart.Regular feeding and watering are essential to prevent flower bud drop. Taller varieties may benefit from staking. A generous mulch of organic matter around the base helps retain moisture and suppress weeds. In greenhouses, maintain high humidity by damping down paths daily.Harvest your peppers green, or allow them to ripen to red or yellow. Use secateurs to cut them from the plant. Outdoor-grown peppers should be harvested before the first frost. Please note: This product cannot be delivered outside the United Kingdom.
