B.C KO T
- Compact 2' tall plants, they grow very well in smaller pots. Pods are small, 1/2" by 1", and shaped like a bullet, hence the name. They start out green and turn ivory white color when fully mature. Very aromatic and flavorful, but very hot too! Very productive.
Seed source:
- Alex Popovich, Langley, BC, Canada 14 (plant)
Year grown: 2014
Location: Zone 7b, PNW, Anmore, BC, Canada (760 ft above sea level)
History
- This is a variety from the Caribbean. The name was trademarked by Redwood City Seed Company in Redwood City, California.
- (Tatiana's note:) Trademark rights are used to prevent others from using a similar mark, but not to prevent others from making the same goods or from selling the same goods or services under a clearly different mark. So, from the legal perspective, the seeds can be sold under a different name. But from the seed preservation perspective, changing a variety name is never a good idea.
