Sweet Pepper 'Belcanto'

Sweet red peppers with smooth skin and thick walls. The fruit are large and tapered at the ends. Belcanto’s plants are substantial with a strong canopy for excellent fruit protection. Fruits turn from green to red. Eat them raw, roast them, fill with your favorite stuffing and bake, or make fajitas.

Plants will grow to about 24-30 inches tall and benefit being supported by stakes once they are bearing fruit, they become very heavy.

Plant in full sun in soil that is well amended with compost and a good vegetable fertilizer. Water regularly to encourage vigorous growth. Feed every month with liquid vegetable fertilizer.

Harvest when peppers are fully sized up. Pepper may be harvested green or left on the plant to mature and turn red for the best sweetness.
