Sweet pepper 'Nepalese'

Enjoys a full sun position in your garden and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Nepalese is thought of as tender, so remember to ensure that temperatures are mild before moving outdoors. Planting Nepalese in potting mix, loamy and silty soil with a ph of between 5.5 and 7.5 is ideal for as it does best in weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil.

Aim to sow 0.25 inches (0.64 cm) deep and try to ensure a gap of at least 0.98 inches (2.5 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 20°C / 68°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Nepalese about 32 days before your last frost date.

As Nepalese is tender, ensure temperatures are mild enough to plant out - wait until after your last frost date to be on the safe side.
