Support Trailing Plants: Unless you are growing smaller plants (jalapeño or micro-tomatoes) you might want to use stakes, trellises, or cages to support the plants as they grow. This will prevent them from sprawling on the ground. Train the vines to grow vertically for better air circulation and easier harvesting.

Unlike standard varieties, 'Maxibel' maintains its delicate texture and nutty sweetness even as the pods mature, making it a favorite for gourmet chefs and home gardeners alike.

These 6 healthy live plants allow you to establish a productive patch immediately. Its sturdy bush habit requires no trellising, making it ideal for garden beds or large patio containers. Why you’ll love it: Stringless gourmet quality, heavy yields on compact plants, and a rich flavor that elevates simple sautés and summer salads.

You will receive 6 healthy live plants. They thrive in full sun and well-drained soil for a fast, abundant summer harvest.
