Marconi Golden Chilli Seeds
Marconi Golden Pepper Seeds. The Marconi Yellow (C. Annuum) is a fantastic Italian style sweet pepper variety. No heat here but plump, juicy fruitiness and flavour. Great germination and consistent growth. Plants in our experience reach around 50 - 80cm in height, yielding a good dozen pods for the season. Pods grow to a good 20cm in length and ripen from green to red when fully ripe. These pods do not have any heat but are crunchy and juicy. Super tasty and satisfying. These peppers would be incredible roasted on the braai, used fresh in salads and salsas, stuffed or marinated in oil for tapas. An all round great culinary pepper and one for those customers who simply don't do heat ;)

* The container sizes above are sugested sizes that are reasonable and accessible for most growers (taking price, space, ecological/environmental impact into consideration). Not everyone can look at growing in huge containers. If you can justify growing in larger containers - there are no limitations on container sizes. You may however, rather look at growing in soil as an option in these instances. Using large amounts of potting medium will come with ecological/environmental impact, which you may wish to take into consideration.
