Will bell pepper plants come back in the spring after frost?

Question

We are in Northern California where it does not frost more than a few times in the winter. We have a number of bell pepper plants which didn't do so well in the summer, but really took off in the fall. But when frost came, they wilted. Will they come back in the spring of should I yank them? Is there anything I should do to maximize their chances?

Answer 1

Yes, they will come back if not killed off by the frost; but second year production is never a good as the first. I'd pull them unless you want to keep it as a specimen plant.

Answer 2

I even have considered basil arise back from the roots after frost harm, yet no longer a bell pepper. Basil looks to reseed itself if and are available up as seedlings the subsequent 365 days if it is been allowed to offer seeds.

Answer 3

It depends on how hard they were hit. If they are totally and completely wilted I'd pull them. Bell peppers are an annual plant so unless a part of them is alive right now they won't come back. If just the tips of the leaves are wilted then they'd be okay.

Answer 4

You know Vegtables are generally considered a anual so usually after the frost they die-so I dont think so.

Answer 5

Sorry, no. They need to be replanted each season and they need it very hot to ripen to be successful. Start them earnly on in the house so that when it is tme to plant out; you have a good start.

Answer 6

Peppers are perennials

If hit by frost they are done

They are more senstive to frost than tomatoes

Answer 7

peppers are tropical and cant take any frost. they are meant to last only one season. pull them out. they are annuals--not perrenials

Answer 8
