About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
you will find the Italian bullhorn pepper, named after its long, curved fruits that resemble a horn. They ripen up to 25 cm long from green to deep red and become very sweet. A classic for grilling and roasting because the flesh caramelizes nicely. The vigorous plants yield abundantly and thrive in a warm, sunny spot. Seed-stable and repeatable.
When you grill it, it develops a deep, almost honey-like aroma.
