‘Marconi Red’ is a prolific Italian heirloom sweet pepper prized for its large, elongated fruits, rich sweetness, and subtle smoky flavor. This high-yielding variety produces beautiful deep red, 3-lobed peppers with no heat.

The peppers grow 10–12 inches long and spread about 3 inches across the shoulders, with crisp, juicy flesh that is excellent for eating fresh, frying, roasting, salsas, pasta dishes, red sauces, and salads.

Plants grow to approximately 2.5 feet tall and perform well in containers, garden beds, and greenhouses. ‘Marconi Red’ is drought tolerant and matures in 70–90 days, making it a reliable and versatile choice for home gardeners.
