Johnny's Selected Seeds Corno di Toros Pepper Seed

F1 hybrid seeds are created by crossing two specific parent varieties to produce offspring with consistent, desirable traits like early maturity and high productivity. While these seeds offer excellent reliability and uniformity for your garden, you cannot save the seeds from these peppers to replant next year, as they will not grow true to type.

These Corno di Toro peppers typically reach maturity in about 80 days. This makes them a relatively early-maturing variety, which is helpful if you have a shorter growing season.

These are sweet Italian frying peppers, not hot peppers. They are prized for their natural sugars, which become even more pronounced and delicious when you fire-roast or sauté them.

Because of their thin skin and sweet flavor, they are incredibly versatile. They are excellent when eaten raw, but they truly shine when fire-roasted to caramelize their sugars, or when stuffed and baked.

These peppers are well-suited for garden beds, provided they get plenty of sun and warmth. While starting them indoors early can give you a head start, they will thrive in the garden once the soil has warmed up.
