  • Species and varieties: Ornamental pepper plants (Capsicum annuum) come in a variety of species and cultivars. Popular varieties include 'Black Pearl', 'Sangria', 'Medusa', and 'Chilly Chili'. These plants are known for their vibrant and colorful fruits, which can range from red, yellow, orange, purple, to black.
  • Hybrid or heirloom: Ornamental pepper seeds can be both hybrid and heirloom. Hybrid varieties are often bred for specific traits such as color and compact growth, while heirloom varieties are open-pollinated and have been passed down through generations.
  • Pruning and training: Ornamental peppers generally require minimal pruning. However, pinching back the tips of young plants can encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead or damaged leaves to maintain plant health.
  • Fertilization needs: Fertilize ornamental pepper plants with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of fruit production.
  • Hardiness zones: Ornamental peppers are typically grown as annuals in USDA hardiness zones 9-11. In cooler climates, they can be grown as perennials if brought indoors during the winter.
  • Climate requirements: These plants thrive in warm, sunny conditions. They require full sun and well-drained soil. Ideal temperatures for growth range from 70°F to 85°F (21°C to 29°C). They are sensitive to frost and should be planted after the last frost date in your area.
