Chilli Bulgarian Carrot Seeds
$4.20
Unit price perCapsicum annuum
Bulgarian Carrot is a distinctive heirloom Chilli from Bulgaria, producing firm, tapered fruits approximately 10 cm long that closely resemble small bright orange carrots. The brilliant colouring, crisp flesh and medium to hot heat make it an unusual and highly productive addition to the chilli garden.
The fruits have a lively, fruity flavour beneath their heat and are particularly good roasted, chopped into salsa, made into chutneys and sauces or preserved whole through pickling. They can be used fresh or dried, with the vivid orange fruits bringing both colour and warmth to dishes.
Chillies originated in the Americas and have been cultivated for thousands of years, spreading around the world following European contact and becoming integral to cuisines throughout Asia, Africa and Europe. They are naturally rich in vitamin C and carotenoids, while their characteristic heat comes from capsaicinoids concentrated primarily in the internal membranes of the fruit.
Bulgarian Carrot grows to approximately 50 cm tall and performs best through warm weather in full sun with fertile, well-drained soil. Plants are frost sensitive but can behave as short-lived perennials in warm, frost-free climates.
Seed count: approximately 120–160 seeds/g
Approximately 25 seeds per packet
Heat: Medium to hot
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: Most of the year
Subtropics: Late winter to summer
Mild climates: Spring to early summer
Cold climates: Spring after frost, preferably started earlier under protection
Planting / Sowing
Sow approximately 5 mm deep into trays or pots and keep warm and consistently moist during germination. Chilli seed germinates best with steady warmth and may be slow to emerge in cool conditions.
Transplant seedlings once the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed, spacing approximately 40–50 cm apart in full sun and fertile, well-drained soil. Maintain consistent moisture during flowering and fruit development.
Harvest fruits once they develop their characteristic brilliant orange colour, or pick earlier if required. Regular harvesting encourages plants to continue flowering and producing fruit.
Due to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety and WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.
