This is a reliable option for those who appreciate large, fleshy peppers with good taste qualities. The growing period from emergence to biological maturity is 110-120 days. The plants are compact, 45-65 cm tall, forming a well-leafed bush convenient for growing in open ground and under cover. The fruits are cherry-red in color at full ripeness, elongated-conical in shape with a characteristic pointed tip.
The length reaches up to 20 cm, weight varies from 180 to 250 g. The peppers are uniform, marketable, with an attractive appearance. The flesh is juicy, sweet, dense, 7-9 mm thick. Thanks to the thick walls, the fruits hold their shape well, have a rich flavor, and are suitable both for fresh consumption and for processing. The variety is valued for its striking fruit shape and universal purpose. The pepper is excellent for salads, baking, stuffing, and canning.
