Description
The Capsicum 'Salsa Mix' punnet is a delightful collection of several capsicum varieties in one 8-cell punnet, ideal for those who want a mix of colours and flavours in their garden. This mix brings together an assortment of peppers that vary in sweetness and colour, all suitable for creating fresh salsas or adding vibrant additions to any dish. Each plant produces small white flowers from Djilba (Early Spring) to Bunuru (Late Summer), followed by colourful fruits as they ripen. This mix thrives in full sun and is well-suited for both garden beds and pots.
To grow 'Salsa Mix' capsicums, plant in a sunny location with well-draining, fertile soil. These plants prefer consistently moist but not waterlogged soil, so water regularly, especially during warm weather. Feed with a balanced fertiliser every 4–6 weeks to promote healthy growth and maximum yield. Capsicums in the 'Salsa Mix' typically take 70–90 days to mature after flowering, with the fruits ready for harvest when they have fully developed their colours. Harvest regularly to encourage continued production, and enjoy a beautiful variety of capsicums all season long.
