Description

Satin-dark and sweet. Purple Beauty Bell is a true bell pepper bred for rich, glossy deep purple skins and zero heat (0 SHU), delivering classic bell crunch with a mild, garden-fresh sweetness. The color reads almost black in cool light, then glows eggplant-violet in the sun—striking on the plant and on the plate. At full physiological ripeness the fruit can finish to crimson red, but most growers harvest in the purple stage for maximum visual pop and crisp texture.

Plants are naturally compact and tidy, about 18–24 inches tall with a bushy habit that sets heavily even in containers and raised beds. Dark green foliage frames clusters of blocky, 3–4-lobed bells, typically 3–4 inches across with thick, juicy walls and smooth shoulders. Fruit mature from green to glossy purple as anthocyanins build in sun-exposed areas; shaded sides may show green—normal for this type and part of its bicolor charm.

On the palate, Purple Beauty offers clean, sweet bell flavor without bitterness. It shines fresh in salads and crudités, where the color holds beautifully, and stays crisp in lunch boxes and snack packs. In the kitchen it roasts, grills, and sautés like a classic bell; the purple exterior softens toward olive or mahogany with heat while the flesh sweetens. Try it stuffed, sliced into fajitas, or quick-pickled for jewel-toned rings.

Selected for reliable production in a range of climates, Purple Beauty Bell rewards gardeners with uniform fruit, tidy plants, and a long picking window. For the deepest purple, grow in full sun with even moisture and steady nutrition; rotate fruit on the plant when harvesting to encourage balanced coloring on the next set. Whether you’re filling market baskets or brightening weeknight meals, this compact bell brings standout color and dependable sweetness—no heat required.
