Orange Marmalade Hybrid Sweet Bell Pepper

Super disease resistance
3 1/2 – 4 in. blocky fruits
Sweet bells ripen from green to orange
Excellent for slicing fresh and stuffing
High yields
A standout in our pepper trials! When growing peppers in our test gardens, we experienced intense bacterial spot disease pressure and nearly every other pepper variety we grew suffered from it. Orange Marmalade, though, was completely healthy and productive. The blocky, 3 1/2 – 4 in. fruits were crisp, clean and delicious. This sweet bell pepper is ideal for eating fresh, adding to salads or stuffing. It’s hands down the easiest orange bell pepper we’ve grown and exhibits superior disease resistance. Sturdy and compact plants are extraordinarily productive and bear lots of sweet bell peppers than ripen from green (55-60 days) to orange (70-75 days) from transplant.
