This ornamental pepper adds spice to hanging baskets and container planters with its purple then red peppers and tri-colored foliage!
Product Description
Product Description
By the end of summer, most gardeners long to freshen or replace their hanging baskets and container planters, but it's too late for the summer annuals. That's where late-season annuals step in, and ornamental peppers are absolute winners. 'Calico' has green, cream, and purple leaves, providing a unique backdrop for thin, elongated purple peppers that eventually mature to red. Its upright form makes it the perfect "thriller" for planters that will last right up until fall freeze. Consider adding in Dusty Miller for a vivid contrast in color and texture, along with pansies or violas long lasting color.
