Choose a variant:
Candy Cane Chocolate Cherry is a mini bell pepper with variegated foliage and colorful striped fruit unlike most normal peppers. Even as young plants, the leaves are green and white striped. As the pepper fruits mature, their color shifts from green with white stripes to deep chocolate and cherry red.

The plants grow well in containers or garden beds, with or without support. From transplant, expect green fruit in about 55–60 days and fully ripe fruit in 70–75 days.

Candy Cane Chocolate Cherry won the 2022 People's Choice Green Thumb Award.

Sow seeds in sterile potting mix, eight weeks prior to your last expected frost date. Plant seeds at a depth equal to two times their thickness. The optimum soil temperature is 80°F. Germination can be erratic. The most common cause of poor germination is the result of uneven planting depths.

Transplant only after night temperatures average above 55°F. Plants are tender and thrive in warm weather. Blossoms drop if temperatures fall below 60°F or if they get too much nitrogen.
