Description:
This blocky Chocolate sweet bell pepper is very versatile for different cuisine choices and is easy to grow for a bell pepper variety. We promise that you just won’t find another sweeter pepper.
The Chocolate Bell pepper plant is compact, reaching up to 2 ft tall, and is a great choice for containers. This is a high-yielding, prolific plant, disease-resistant, and grows well in both cooler and hotter weather areas. Watch as these plants produce high yields of these 4" long fruits that change colors from green to brown when they hit maturity.
The Chocolate Bell pepper is a sugar-sweet bell without the aftertaste that some green bells have. If you want to mix up the bell peppers, the Chocolate Sweet pepper will be a favorite with its rich, chocolate-brown color, thick flesh, and sweeter bell pepper flavor. Their color will turn a salad into a gourmet experience, and you’ll never be bored with the same old boring green color.
