Heirloom California Wonder Bell Pepper Seeds
First introduced in 1928, California Wonder is one of the most popular heirloom bell peppers grown in home gardens. These plants produce large, thick-walled peppers about 3–4 inches with the classic four-lobed shape, perfect for stuffing, cooking, or fresh salads.
