Variety traits

Pepper plant height

Capsicum annuum L.

A morphological trait of peppers that determines the planting scheme, the necessity for pruning, and the choice between protected or open ground cultivation. The classification includes dwarf (up to 40–50 cm), semi-dwarf (50–100 cm), and tall (more than 100 cm) forms.

In the reference 347 varieties crop Bell pepper, where this is mentioned in the description.

During pepper cultivar testing, plant height is measured in centimeters on a sample of at least 20 plants. The value of this trait significantly depends on growing conditions and the plant's growth habit, with dwarf determinate varieties often being compact, while tall varieties can reach up to 2 meters in greenhouses.

Plant height dictates agronomic decisions: compact, dwarf forms are suitable for high-density planting and do not require labor-intensive pruning. In contrast, tall plants require mandatory staking to supports or trellises, as well as regular suckering for the rational distribution of resources.
