Grafted Pepper Jericho Vegetable Plants are a big cropping sweet pepper variety with thick-walled fruits measuring 15-18cm long. They ripen from green to red and are perfect for enjoying fresh or for stuffing, bringing exceptional flavour to your garden and kitchen.Grafted vegetable plants offer gardeners plants with greater vigour and much more resistance to soil-borne pests and diseases, such as nematodes – particularly useful if you grow in the greenhouse border soil each year, where crop rotation is somewhat limited! The grafting process combines the best attributes of two different plants – a species rootstock and a hybrid variety. This produces strong, vigorous plants that yield more fruits and heavier harvests. While traditionally grown in greenhouses, these plants will also perform well outdoors in a warm, sunny position, providing flexible cropping options.The robust rootstock ensures extra resilience to soil-borne pests and diseases, encouraging heavier cropping and more reliable performance throughout the season. Supplied as well-established plants in 9cm pots. Please do not remove the plastic grafting clip – it will naturally fall off as the plant grows.
