Description: This sweet red Italian heirloom is one of our all round favourites for fresh eating. It is a medium sized, tapered pepper always producing a huge crop over a long period which taste really sweet and full of flavour. Not as large or blocky as sweet bell peppers but far more prolific and way more flavour.

Planting Instructions: Plant indoors in trays in early Spring. Needs even temperature of 18 degrees C to germinate. Prick out when second leaves appear to 2.5cm diagonal spacing. When leaves touch transplant again at 10cm diagonal spacing or into pots. Transplant after danger of frost, under cloches if necessary, at 30cm diagonal spacing.
