Pepper Zolotnichok

Hot pepper variety 'Zolotnichok' is an early-maturing compact plant reaching a height of 30 to 50 cm and a bush diameter of up to 50 cm. The semi-branching bush allows it to be grown not only in open ground but also in pots or hanging planters on balconies and windowsills. The period from germination to full fruit ripening is 90-95 days, making this variety attractive for those who want to harvest quickly.

'Zolotnichok' fruits have a truncated-conical shape, about 4 cm long, with a smooth and glossy surface. In technical ripeness, they are dark green, and at biological maturity, they turn into a rich dark-orange hue, which stands out vividly against the green foliage. The weight of one fruit is 3 to 5 grams, with a wall thickness of about 1.5 mm. The taste of the fruits is hot, with moderate spiciness, confirmed by a Scoville scale rating of 5000 to 20000 units.

This pepper variety is widely used in cooking as a spice and seasoning, adding a spicy and aromatic flavor to dishes. Thanks to its compact size and decorative appearance, 'Zolotnichok' is ideal for growing indoors, allowing you to enjoy fresh hot peppers year-round.
