Overview
Declaration is a hybrid sweet pepper chosen mainly for its disease package: resistance to phytophthora, tomato spotted wilt virus, bacterial leaf spot races 1, 2 and 3 and tobacco mosaic virus. Fruit is thick walled, 4 to 6 inches, green ripening to red. If phytophthora root rot has taken your peppers in wet seasons, this is one of the few bells with real protection.
