Sweet Pepper Marvras F1 Seeds

[75–85 days] Sweet Pepper Marvras F1 is a striking blocky pepper that starts off a glossy, deep purple and matures to a rich dark red. This eye-catching colour shift makes it a great addition to any garden or plate. A thick-walled, 3–4 lobed fruit with a crisp bite and sweet flavour, it’s perfect for roasting, grilling, stuffing, or enjoying raw in salads.

Marvras F1 produces large, uniform fruits with an excellent shelf life and good disease resistance—most notably to Tobacco Mosaic Virus (Tm 2). It performs well in both protected and outdoor conditions, though it will do best in a greenhouse or polytunnel in the UK climate. The plants are vigorous yet compact, making them ideal for both novice and experienced growers looking for high yields and dependable quality.

This variety is as ornamental as it is productive, offering colour, flavour, and reliability all in one sturdy plant.

Height: 60–80cm (24–32"). Spread: 40–50cm (16–20").

Common Questions

Can I eat Marvras peppers when they’re still purple? Yes! The fruit is perfectly edible at the purple stage—crisp and mildly sweet—but it becomes sweeter and more intense in flavour as it ripens to red.

Do Marvras peppers need to be grown under cover? While they can grow outdoors in warmer regions, for best results in the UK we recommend growing them under glass or in a polytunnel.

What does Tm 2 resistance mean? Tm 2 resistance protects the plant against Tobacco Mosaic Virus, helping ensure healthier growth and more reliable fruit production.
