Description

Spicy, aromatic bell pepper that also grows well outdoors. Particularly deep, rich aroma. Yielding, dark red fruits when fully ripe. About 12-15 cm long. The flesh is very thick: the pods can also be dried and ground. Original Hungarian variety. The powder is known as the main spice in the famous Hungarian Szeged goulash. Very early maturing variety. Grows to a height of approx. 80-100 cm.

Non hybrid

Not frost resistant

Growing tips

You should grow peppers in nutrient-rich soil in a sunny location. For a rich harvest, the first flower (terminal bud/'king flower') should be broken off. This promotes flower and fruit formation on the side shoots. Pull the plants with 3-4 shoots and remove the remaining shoots. In Central Europe, cultivation is usually annual, but the highest yield is only achieved 2-3 years after planting. To achieve this, the plant must be overwintered indoors. The fruits are harvested from July to September, depending on the variety and weather conditions.
