Description

Capsicum ‘Round Sweet Cherry’ is a frost-tender bush to 60cm tall. It has thick-walled, sweet and crunchy round fruits to 3cm in diameter. The fruits ripen from green to red. This variety can be grown in containers.
Capsicums are a perennial plant in frost-free areas but will produce less fruit in subsequent years. They are usually grown as annuals in western Sydney. Capsicums can be overwintered in a warm, sheltered spot such as a greenhouse, in front of a north-facing wall or on a sunny, north-facing verandah or balcony.
Viable seeds can only be collected from mature fruit. Leave the fruit on the plant, where possible, until it has matured before being edible. However, seed can most easily be collected from mature fruit while preparing food for eating.
