Dulce Sol Chilli Seeds

Information: The Dulce Sol chilli is a very tasty tree chilli variety (Capsicum baccatum). Dulce` is the Spanish word for `sweet` and this chilli really is mildly sweet - sweet in flavour and mild in heat. It also has a fruity, juicy aroma, a pretty bell shape and a brilliant golden yellow. The Dulce Sol is a real beauty in the garden. Its mild heat makes it suitable for snacking directly from the bush and as a splash of colour in salads.

Care: Germination temperature is between 20°C and 28°C (germination period: 7-21 days); it is therefore recommended to use a greenhouse and a heating mat. The plants need fresh, well-fertilised, permeable soil, and do not tolerate waterlogging. They should be planted in a sunny, protected place with at least 6 hours of sunlight - preferably more. To keep the plant over the winter, cut it back by 20cm after harvesting and place in a light place where it is at least 15°C.
