A live tri-color bell pepper plant sold in a 3-gallon (11.4-liter) container, arriving at approximately 12 inches tall and ready to transplant. This collection produces bell peppers in three distinct colors — typically red, yellow, and orange — as the fruits ripen through the season, offering both visual variety and fresh homegrown flavor.

Bell pepper plants thrive in full sun and require at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. They prefer consistently moist, well-drained soil rich in organic matter and should never be allowed to dry out completely. Suited as an annual in all US hardiness zones, these plants fruit from summer through early fall, with peppers reaching harvest-ready size 60–90 days after transplanting. Mature plants typically grow 12–24 inches tall with an 18–24 inch spread and an upright, mounding habit.

The 3-gallon starter container makes transplanting straightforward — move into a garden bed or a container at least 10–12 inches deep with adequate drainage holes. Bell peppers are heavy feeders; fertilize every two weeks with a balanced or tomato-formulated fertilizer for best yields. Plants are self-fertile, so no separate pollinator is needed, though gently shaking blooms during flowering can improve fruit set.
