Sweet Sunbright peppers should be started indoors in late winter and transplanted to a sunny, well-drained part of the garden after all danger of frost has passed. As part of a permaculture garden, they help in creating microclimates and can be planted alongside flowers to enhance biodiversity, which in turn attracts pollinators. Good companions include basil and carrots. Care for these peppers involves regular watering and occasional feeding. Culinary uses are versatile, from fresh in salads to roasted in dishes, providing a dietary source of vitamins A and C, which are essential for eye health and immunity.
