Capsicum annuum "Purple Beauty" Who can resist a deep-purple skinned, thick-fleshed pepper with green flesh?! Blocky shaped 3-4” tall peppers that go from purple to deep red when fully mature. Stunning when sliced in a salad or stuffed. Type: Annual Sun: Full Planting Depth: 1/4” Spacing: 12-18” Water: Moderate Days to Maturity/Bloom: 74 days Height: 18-24” Zones: 3-12 Start pepper seeds indoors in peat pots about 8 weeks before the last expected spring frost. Sow them 1/4" deep and keep the soil at 80-85 degrees F until germination; provide sunlight or a grow light for 12-16 hours a day. When the outdoor temperature reaches 60-65 degrees F during the day and no less than 50 degrees F at night, transplant the seedlings 12-16" apart. Exposing the plants to the weather for several hours a day before transplanting may help prevent shock. Peppers also grow well in containers or raised beds.
