A prized Italian heirloom that produces 3-lobed tapered blunt-tipped extremely sweet bright red fruits. The fruits are long and slender (6cm x 17cm long), maturing from green to a deep red. Excellent fresh in salad, also good for frying, roasting and stuffing. Regular harvesting will ensure a productive continuous harvest until late autumn.
