Yellow Cherry (Gelbe Kirsche): The shining gem from Kosovo

A rich treasure from south-eastern Europe

The impressive “Gelbe Kirsche” chili variety comes from the heart of Kosovo. This special land variety is known for its incredible yield. With its spherical, cherry-sized fruits that grow upright and ripen from a fresh green to a bright yellow, it is a real eye-catcher in any garden.

Compact and versatile: an all-rounder for every location

The yellow cherry grows compactly between 30 and 60 cm in height and forms a broad, flattened crown that branches just above the ground. These characteristics make them ideal for growing outdoors, in the greenhouse and, thanks to their compact growth, also in pots. Those who have little space or live in colder regions will appreciate the fact that the yellow cherry is ideal for overwintering.

From the garden to the kitchen: a fiery taste experience

With a spiciness of 6 on the scale, the yellow cherry is perfect for those who like it spicy, but not too extreme. Their fruits enrich sauces with their intense colour and unique taste. Even dried, it is a valuable spice for a variety of culinary creations.
