Pepper-Red Bell Mercury Seed

Pepper 'Red Bell Mercury' is a high-yielding, sweet bell pepper variety known for its thick walls, crisp texture, and rich red color. Maturing in about 70-75 days, it produces large, blocky peppers that start green and ripen to deep red.

Transplant outdoors when temperatures stay above 60°F, spacing plants 18-24 inches apart. Keep soil consistently moist and fertilize regularly for optimal growth. Perfect for fresh eating, grilling, and cooking, ‘Red Bell Mercury’ is a flavorful and reliable garden favorite.
