The Yellow Bell Pepper Tenor F1 is an early and productive hybrid variety, producing square-shaped yellow bell peppers that are 13 to 16cm (5 to 6in) wide and 9 to 10cm (4in) long. They are very tasty. It is an annual plant, requiring heat and rich soil. The grafted plugs should be planted in March-April for a harvest from July to September. Grafting leads to a faster and more abundant harvest.
The grafting technique consists of giving a desired variety (in this case 'Tenor's') the root system of another specially selected variety, called the rootstock. This rootstock has excellent resistance to soil parasites and diseases, which provides extra vigour to the plant. It is then more resistant to difficult external conditions (such as cold climates) and will yield significantly higher than a non-grafted plant. Fruit production starts earlier and lower on the main stem.
Peppers belong to the Solanaceae family and are divided into five major species: Capsicum annuum (the most common), C. baccatum, C. chinense, C. frutescens, and C. pubescens. The fruits are initially green and take on their definitive colour during ripening: red, yellow, brown, orange, purple, etc. Their shape varies: square, elongated, semi-long, etc.
Peppers are rich in vitamins and antioxidants, including capsaicin, which is responsible for heat in these fruits.
In terms of cooking, peppers are used in many cuisines around the world and can be cooked in multiple ways. Peppers can be eaten raw or cooked, stuffed, marinated, grilled, in salads, ratatouilles, etc.
They are greedy plants that require rich soil and sun.
Harvest: the harvest takes place from August to October (or from July for some early varieties). Cut the stem with secateurs or a knife.
Storage: peppers can be stored in a refrigerator for several days. They can also be frozen or dried, or even preserved in water or oil once grilled.
Gardener's tip: we recommend mulching the soil with successive layers of clippings, if possible mixed with dead leaves. This protection keeps the soil moist and reduces weeds. You can also opt for a mineral mulch (bricks, slate, etc.) which will help accumulate heat.
Harvest
Plant habit
Foliage
These plants require warmth. Plant in open ground in spring, after the last frost. In the meantime, you can pre-cultivate them in pots. Keep them in a very bright, lightly heated room, but frost-free.
In open ground
Plant in open ground when the soil is sufficiently warmed up and the risk of frost has passed. This is usually around mid-May. Choose a very sunny and sheltered location. Peppers appreciate very rich, light, and well-drained soil. Add well-rotted compost to the soil in the previous autumn.
Space the plants 50cm (20in) apart in all directions. Dig a hole (3 times the volume of the root ball), add well-rotted compost to the bottom of the planting hole. Place your plant with the graft point at ground level and cover with soil. Firmly tamp down and water.
At the beginning of cultivation, place a removable tunnel over the plants to gain a few degrees, especially in cooler regions. Hoe and gently weed as the roots are shallow. Then, apply mulch.
In a pot
Choose a pot that is at least 30cm (12in) deep. Place a layer of gravel or clay pebbles at the bottom of the pot to facilitate drainage. Fill the pot with a mixture of potting soil and well-rotted compost. Place the root ball and cover with soil. Firmly tamp down and water. Place the pot in the sun. Regularly add compost.
Install stakes. Water regularly at the base of the plants.
It is advisable to pinch the plants, especially in cooler regions. When the plants have 10 to 15 fruits, cut the ends of the stems one leaf above the last fruit.
Plant flowers nearby that will attract pollinating insects.
In terms of rotation, wait 3 years before growing them in the same ground again.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).

The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
