Great germination rate!

These germinated in two days. I started them in midsummer and they fruited by late fall in my zone 10b garden and are overwintering just fine. I’ll have more to harvest by late spring. I made my red sauce for pozole for Christmas with my harvest!

Big Jim Chiles

Big Chiles with just enough heat to add to green enchilada's. The flavor after roasting is fantastic. Since green chile roasting is not a local thing in Eastern Washington we us a weed burner. The smell of roasting peppers is heavenly.

Pueblo Chili

My favorite green chili to grow. Plenty of heat and after roasting sit perfectly on a hamburger. Also my wonderful wife makes Puelo Chili jam that is a real crowd pleaser

Mirasol Mosco Pueblo Chile Seeds

Beautiful and spicy

I was looking for a spicier New Mexico red chile and this was awesome! It is a beautiful looking pepper and the taste is superb.

Hatch Green Medium - Big Jim Chile Seeds

Grew these in MI, zone 5a.

Plants were quite bushy and full of peppers. Great flavor. Made a wonderful little Ristra with some of the later harvested peppers. Will continue to grow these yearly.

Chimayo Chile Seeds

Beautiful and hot!

These plants were super healthy all season long and produced a LOT of fruit. They'll add heat and color to any dish. They made my cowboy candy and pickled jalapeños extra special!

Super delicious Scotch Bonnets!

Very good germination rate and super abundant and delicious peppers!. I had them in 10g and 5g fabric pots and they very well the last two years. Amazing to smoke and dry / freeze to have throughout the year! I just made a spicy brown porter mustard with scotch bonnets! Also made an amazing roasted scotch bonnet hot sauce! yum!

Hatch Green X Hot - Lumbre Chile Seeds

Get these every year

These grow large. We roast them and peel them and make green chile from them. My husband adores them.
Made Chili Mac for my Step son and he ate it all in one sitting.
I plant 10 plants every year.

Beautiful & Spicy

These are definitely ornamental, they add a nice touch of color to your garden.. and they are spicy too!

Easter Ornamental NuMex Pepper Seeds

Cute pepper plant

Grew the purple jalapenos last summer. Slow to get going, but ended up with a nice compact bush in a pot. I am trying to overwinter them by bringing the.pot inside for the winter. It is still growing, small purple peppers about 1" long.

Mexico Midget Tomato Seeds

Late producer

This tomato just kept producing when other big tomatoes stopped. I had late fall tomatoes fresh out of the garden into October. The color in a salad can’t be matched.
