Description

Gorgeous hot pepper with outstanding flavor. Vezena Piperka hot pepper is one of the most flavorful hot peppers I have grown. At seed maturity, fruit skin develops striations. Fruits have excellent aroma and a well-balanced heat/flesh ratio. This hot pepper makes some of the best pepper sauces I have ever tasted.

My maternal grandfather was born in Shumen (tr. Şumnu), Bulgaria, in the Ottoman Empire era and had to flee to Anatolia during Balkan Wars in early 20th century. I grew up listening the stories my mom told me about the food she ate in her childhood home; the culturally significant food for my grandparents. Hence, Balkan seeds have a special place in my heart as they connect me to my grandparents. Vezena Piperka hot pepper is no exception.

Our seed was originally sourced from the Balkans. Macedonian variety.

  • Growing tips: Start pepper seeds indoors in seedling trays or small seedling pots with seed starting soil that has essential nutrients in it, 6-8 weeks prior to last frost. Keep the soil moist for quick germination. Make sure to keep the young pepper seedlings under good light to have strong plants with sturdy, healthy stems and leaves. Transplant after last frost in well-drained, fertile soil enrichened with compost and other amendments. Feed your pepper plants with liquid fertilizer once every two weeks. Water regularly especially in flower stage. Mulch and always water at plant base to minimize disease. Some pepper varieties are taller than others and may need to be tied to a stake so that fruits don’t touch soil and rot.
