'California Wonder' fruits are perfect for a wide variety of culinary uses: fresh consumption, salads, grilling, stuffing, or sauces. Their crisp, sweet flesh makes them a great choice for home gardeners and chefs alike.
For best results, sow seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost. Plant them 0.5-1 cm deep in rich potting soil and maintain a temperature of 24-26°C to promote rapid germination in 7-14 days. Transplant seedlings outdoors after all danger of frost, spacing them 40-50 cm apart in well-drained soil enriched with organic matter.
Exposed to full sun with regular irrigation, this variety offers generous harvests throughout the season, providing fleshy and colorful peppers that will enhance your dishes while adding a tasty and nutritious touch.
A classic and versatile pepper, essential in any vegetable garden!
