Natural, untreated and GMO-free seeds. Popular since the 1920s, this heirloom variety is the golden version of the famous ‘California Wonder’ red pepper.
Start early, in late winter or early spring, to ensure the long growing season peppers need to mature. Sow two seeds ¼ inch (5 mm) deep in small pots or cells, cover lightly with potting soil, water and germinate at 70°F (21°C) in a heated propagator or on a warm windowsill . Grow from seedlings in warm conditions and transfer to 3½in (9cm) pots when they are about 2in (5cm) tall.
Peppers take a long time to ripen; Pick the first two or three while they are still green to allow others to form and ripen later.
