Chervena Chushka Pepper Seeds
Take a flavor journey to Eastern Europe with the Chervena Chushka, a treasured heirloom straight from Bulgaria! Translating literally to "Red Pepper," this variety is celebrated not for its heat, but for its exceptionally rich and sweet flavor. It is, without a doubt, one of the finest roasting peppers you can grow.
The plant produces heavy yields of long, pointed, slightly flattened peppers that ripen to a gorgeous, deep crimson. When roasted over a flame, the skin blisters and peels away effortlessly, revealing succulent, aromatic flesh that is perfect for a wide range of culinary uses. If you want to add a truly gourmet sweet pepper to your garden, the Chervena Chushka is an absolute must-have.
