Pepper Seeds - mixed

Mixed pepper seeds produce warm-season annual plants with varying growth habits depending on the individual types included in the mix. Plants are adapted to warm and temperate climates and require a full growing season with consistent warmth and sunlight. This mix is suitable for gardeners who want diversity in plant form and garden use within a single planting. Mixed peppers are commonly grown in garden beds, raised beds, and containers and perform best in well-drained soil with steady moisture.
