Pepper, Golden Calwonder Bell (Capsicum annuum ‘Golden Calwonder’)
Golden Calwonder is a classic heirloom bell pepper known for its bright golden-yellow fruits, thick walls, and sweet, mild flavor. A color variation of the well-known California Wonder type, it offers the same reliable production and sturdy fruit quality, with added visual appeal and slightly sweeter taste when fully ripe. It’s a dependable choice for fresh eating, cooking, and market-style presentation.
Key Characteristics
Sweet, mild flavor with crisp texture
Golden Calwonder produces blocky, thick-walled bell peppers with a juicy, crunchy bite. The flavor is mild and sweet, especially when fully ripened to a deep golden yellow. It’s ideal for fresh salads, slicing, stuffing, and cooking where sweetness and texture are key.
Thick-walled fruits for versatile use
The peppers are substantial and firm, making them excellent for stuffing, roasting, and grilling. Their structure holds up well in cooking, while their sweetness enhances a wide range of dishes. They are also well-suited for fresh snacking and market display.
Reliable heirloom production
This variety is known for consistent yields and sturdy plant growth. It performs well in a range of garden conditions with proper care, making it a dependable option for home gardeners and small-scale production.
Adaptable to garden beds and container growing
