Big, sweet peppers from a compact plant
Proven Winners® Harvest Sweet Escape™ Luna Dwarf Sweet Pepper Bush is an easy-to-grow variety that produces crunchy, remarkably sweet peppers. The fruits are impressively large for such a compact plant, offering plenty of flavor for fresh eating, salads, grilling, and cooking.
Its space-saving habit fits neatly into sunny garden beds, raised beds, and patio containers. Beyond the harvest, its tidy growth and colorful ripening peppers add seasonal interest to edible landscapes and small-space gardens.
About Proven Winners®: Proven Winners® ColorChoice Shrubs offers flowering shrubs, evergreens, and trees that have been tested for eight to ten years to ensure they outperform conventional varieties. That means bigger flowers, more colorful foliage, reblooming, disease resistance, new habits, or anything that makes them more beautiful and easier to grow in your landscape or garden.
Pollination Info
Proven Winners® Harvest Sweet Escape™ Luna Dwarf Sweet Pepper Bush Pollination
Proven Winners® Harvest Sweet Escape™ Luna Dwarf Sweet Pepper Bushs are self-fertile. You will get fruit with only one plant. However, adding an additional Proven Winners® Harvest Sweet Escape™ Luna Dwarf Sweet Pepper Bush will drastically increase the size of your crop.
Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Choose a location with full sun and rich, well-draining soil after frost danger has passed and temperatures are consistently warm. For containers, use a pot with drainage holes and a quality potting mix.
2. Watering: Water deeply when the top inch of soil feels dry. Keep moisture consistent while fruits develop, but avoid leaving the roots in soggy soil.
3. Pruning: Little pruning is needed. Remove damaged or yellowing leaves, and harvest peppers regularly to encourage continued production. Support heavily loaded stems if necessary.
4. Fertilizing: Apply a balanced vegetable fertilizer according to label directions after planting. Once flowering begins, avoid excessive nitrogen, which can promote leafy growth at the expense of fruit.
