The name of this Italian heirloom sweet pepper translates as "horn of the bull", a tribute to the pepper's full, tapered shape. Ripening to a bright red, the fruits (8-10" long and 2 1/2-3" wide at the top) have a sweet, crisp, full-bodied flavor. A tasty favorite eaten raw, fried, stuffed or grilled. Ready to harvest about 75 days from transplant.
