Admiral pepper is a medium-early, large-fruited hybrid with a maturation period of 100–110 days after germination. The plant is strong, semi-branching, 100–130 cm tall, with good leaf coverage, which helps protect the fruits from overheating. Plants are suitable for cultivation both in open ground and under plastic coverings, demonstrating high drought resistance and immunity to various diseases.
Admiral pepper fruits have a conical shape, smooth and glossy surface with dense skin of 6–7 mm thickness. Their weight ranges from 140 to 180 g, and length is 10–12 cm. In technical ripeness, the fruits are green, and in biological ripeness, they turn into a rich red color. The flesh is sweet, juicy, succulent, and aromatic, making this variety especially valuable for fresh consumption and preservation. The fruits marinate well, have high transportability, and can be stored for a long time.
The variety is characterized by abundant and uniform yields, reaching 4.3–6.2 kg per square meter. Leaves are green, elongated, and wrinkled, contributing to optimal microclimate around the fruits. High carotene content in the fruits makes them beneficial for health. Due to the combination of excellent taste, market appearance, and resistance to adverse conditions, Admiral pepper is a reliable choice for gardeners and farmers.
