Peppers reach approximately 4 by 4¾ inches and are excellent for stuffing, roasting, grilling, salads, and fresh market use. Harvest at about 70 days for crisp green peppers with a fresh, grassy flavor, or let them mature to approximately 85 days for fully red fruits with greater sweetness and complexity. Strong foliage helps shade developing peppers, while tobacco mosaic virus resistance adds useful protection in the garden. With sturdy walls, dependable shape, and a generous harvest window, California Wonder is a practical classic for home gardens and containers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(7, 74, 13);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGermination Rate: 85%.
