Here's a pic of one of the Marconi Peppers:
Just 4 Fun
Marconi and their relatives are my favorites.
Just thought I would post this in late winter! We like to grill them.
My saved seed versions are up. I was given seed of Golden Marconi last year. It was slow to germinate and slow to grow. Did not do well in my garden. I am trying it once again but already see the same sluggish germination this year compared to my red variety.
I buy one every year at the Garden Center. I have too many other plants I start from seed.
I'm having trouble getting the red to germinate. Purple and golden are doing fine.
