Pepper Seeds - Yellow Biquinho

Yellow Biquinho pepper plants are warm-season annuals with a compact, upright to slightly spreading growth habit and fine branching. They are adapted to warm and temperate climates and perform best during the frost-free growing season with consistent sunlight. Plants grown from seed establish reliably in fertile, well-drained soil and benefit from regular watering to maintain even moisture.
