Corno di Toro (Bulls Horn Pepper) is an Italian Heirloom.  It produces an abundant amount of sweet shiny peppers that curve slightly resembling the shape of a bull’s horn.  Peppers start off green and mature into a brilliant deep red.  Peppers average between 20-25 cm (8-10”) long and get quite thick at the shoulders; 6-8 cm (2½-3”) wide.  Very sweet, crisp and flavorful. Plants are extremely productive and become quite heavily laden with peppers and should be staked and tied.  Plant height averages around 41-61 cm (16-24”) tall, but can achieve 91 cm (3’) under ideal growing conditions.
