The North Star Hybrid Pepper is a Sweet Bell pepper. It grows very early, and is well-suited for short-season areas (Maturity: 60 days). The plants are well-adapted to set blocky fruit even under unfavorable conditions.
This fruit is a 3- to 4-lobed, blocky dark green bell pepper. The smooth-skinned, thick-walled peppers are about 4 inches long and 3 ½ inches wide.
North Star produces reliably even under adverse conditions and is great for short-season gardens, such as those in the North. This is the first of the early standard bells to turn from green to mature red. It is resistant to Tobacco Mosaic Virus.
Seeds should be started indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost. This is a hybrid pepper and you may not be able to grow it from seeds.
