CloseAt heart, gardeners are perennial optimists, growing plants in hopes of reaping bountiful flowers, fruits, or vegetables. Bell peppers will try gardeners' patience because it's a long haul until this 'Red Beauty' pepper does finally turn red and sweet. Find the sunniest spot in your garden to grow peppers, water them deeply and only when the soil is dry, and watch them grow from small green peppers to larger green peppers and finally, finally, to luscious red peppers. If you want larger red peppers, remove up to 50% of the flowers, so the remaining fruits can grow bigger.
