A robust, high-yielding capsicum that produces large, firm, four-lobed fruit. The capsicums start green and ripen to a bright yellow, bringing colour and crunch to fresh and cooked meals.
This medium to large plant develops good foliage cover and can set fruit in cooler conditions than many capsicums. It performs across a range of growing environments and has strong disease resistance qualities. Mature plants average approximately 85–105 cm tall, so allow them room to grow and support heavily laden branches if needed.
Enjoy the firm, blocky fruit while green or leave it on the plant to ripen yellow. Capsicums are a source of vitamin C and antioxidants.

🌡️ Climate and Planting Guide
This variety has a strong fruit set under relatively cool conditions and can perform well in a range of garden environments. Capsicums still need suitable growing warmth, so wait until frost risk has passed before planting outdoors in cooler districts.
Choose a position with full to partial sun and protection from strong winds. During very hot summer weather, provide some cover from intense afternoon sun to help protect exposed fruit from sunburn.
🫑 Fruit and Kitchen Uses
The large, firm fruit has the familiar four-lobed, blocky shape. Harvest it green or allow it to mature to yellow for a colourful addition to your meals.
Fresh: Slice into salads, sandwiches and grazing platters.
Cooked: Use in stir-fries, roasted vegetable dishes, stuffed capsicums and sauces.
✓ Success Checklist
| Action | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Plant in full to partial sun | Good light supports growth, flowering and fruit production. |
| Shelter from strong winds | Protects the plant and its developing fruit. |
| Use well-drained, organic-rich soil | Provides a healthy root environment and nutrients. |
| Water regularly | Helps maintain steady moisture while fruit develops. |
| Mulch in hot weather | Helps retain moisture around the roots. |
| Feed regularly | Capsicums are heavy feeders, particularly when producing large fruit. |
| Provide cover on very hot days | Intense summer sun can burn exposed fruit. |
🪴 Pots and Garden Beds
Grow in a garden bed or a large pot with drainage holes and quality growing mix. Allow 45–60 cm between plants and rows so the mature foliage has room to develop. As plants can reach approximately 85–105 cm tall and carry large fruit, add a stake or other support if branches become heavily laden.
Check container-grown plants frequently during warm weather, as pots can dry out faster than garden beds.
🐛 Pest and Care Notes
This variety has strong disease resistance qualities, but regular plant checks are still worthwhile. Look over the foliage and developing fruit for signs of pests, stress or sunburn. Maintain airflow, avoid waterlogged soil and keep watering consistent.
Give this productive capsicum enough room, steady water and regular feeding. Let the firm, blocky fruit ripen from green to yellow for a bright finish to your harvest.
