Pepper (Sweet) Long Red Marconi

Description

Long Red Marconi, like their name, produce long thin fruits with a mild sweet flavour. They are medium green turning deep red on maturity and are very productive.

As easy to grow as tomatoes and requiring much of the same treatment. Peppers can be grown outside, so long as they are in a sheltered sunny area, but best results are usually obtained when they are grown in a polytunnel or a glasshouse. Peppers are delicious when used raw in salads but are also very tasty when cooked. They can be stuffed, roasted or added to sauces.
