The plant showcases a sturdy, compact growth habit with glossy, dark green foliage.

With a uniform shape and glossy texture, these peppers stand out in gardens and are favored for their ornamental value.

Ensure consistent moisture during germination and growth, and provide support as the plants grow to bear the weight of the peppers.
Maintaining warm temperatures and a regular watering schedule fosters healthy growth. With its appealing appearance, exceptional sweetness, and versatility in cooking, the California Wonder Sweet Bell Pepper continues to be a favorite choice for both gardeners and culinary enthusiasts alike.
