Ka’ala Sweet Pepper (Ecologically Grown)

Grown by Edmund Frost – 90 days – Capsicum annuum

Small sweet red bell peppers, bred in Hawaii for tolerance to bacterial wilt and root knot nematodes. We noticed Ka’ala because it was the only pepper in our 2018 trial that didn’t get bacterial leaf spot, and they looked and tasted great. Peppers are triangular, 2.5 inches across at the top, sweet and productive in hot summer weather. Ka’ala was the most productive, best looking pepper in Twin Oaks Seed Farm’s drought-stressed 2024 sweet pepper trial, leading to renewed excitement about the variety on our part. Also good green. 130 seeds/gram.
