Sweet Pepper Iko-Iko (Capsicum annuum)
Sweet Pepper Iko-Iko is a colorful and versatile pepper variety celebrated for its striking multi-colored fruits and sweet flavor. Perfect for home gardeners and culinary enthusiasts, this variety brings vibrancy and flavor to both gardens and kitchens.
Plant Characteristics
The Iko-Iko plant grows to a height of 60–80 cm, featuring a compact, bushy structure suitable for garden beds or containers. It produces blocky, bell-shaped fruits that transition through an array of vibrant colors—purple, yellow, orange, and red—during ripening. Each pepper weighs 100–150 grams, with thick walls and a glossy texture. This high-yielding variety ensures a plentiful harvest throughout the growing season.
Flavor and Nutritional Qualities
The peppers are sweet and crisp, offering a refreshing crunch perfect for raw consumption or cooking. Packed with vitamins A and C, antioxidants, and fiber, Iko-Iko is both a flavorful and nutritious addition to any meal, supporting a healthy diet while adding vibrant color to dishes.
Cultivation Recommendations
Sweet Pepper Iko-Iko thrives in full sun with well-drained, fertile soil. Sow seeds indoors 8–10 weeks before the last frost date, maintaining a soil temperature of 24–27°C for optimal germination. Transplant seedlings outdoors once the temperature stabilizes, spacing plants 40–50 cm apart. Regular watering, mulching, and light feeding with balanced fertilizer promote healthy growth and fruit production. Fruits typically mature in 75–85 days after transplanting, delivering an extended and colorful harvest.
Applications and Uses
The vibrant colors and sweet flavor of Iko-Iko peppers make them perfect for fresh salads, stir-fries, and snacking. They are excellent for stuffing, roasting, or grilling, adding a burst of color and sweetness to any dish. The multi-colored fruits also make a striking decorative element in edible landscaping or gourmet presentations.
Packaging and Delivery
Each packet contains 5 fresh, premium-quality seeds, carefully tested for germination and quality. Orders are processed within 1–2 business days, with delivery typically taking 1–2 weeks, both within India and internationally.
