Rumor is that the Bulgarian Carrot Pepper was smuggled out of Russia during the late 1980s, and made its way through Europe, the Caribbean, and then the United States !
This compact plant grows up to 2 ft tall and does well growing in containers as well as in cooler climates. The fruity pepper grows to three to four inches tall and resembles a bright orange carrot, with its pointy shape and fluorescent orange skin. They ripen from green to yellow, and then finally orange.
The Bulgarian Carrot has a crunchy texture with a sweet yet tangy flavor, and they produce a burst of heat. these peppers are great for salsas, roasting, stir fry, and grilling.
