Mirasol New Mexico Chile Seeds – A Flavorful, Medium-Heat Pepper

Discover the bold and vibrant taste of Mirasol New Mexico Chile Seeds, a medium-heat pepper with an intense yet delightfully fruity flavor. These striking red to dark red peppers grow upright on tall plants, adding both beauty and spice to your garden. Perfect for traditional mole sauces and Peruvian dishes, these heirloom chiles bring authentic Southwestern and Latin American flavors to your kitchen.

Why Choose Mirasol Chile Seeds?

With a Scoville heat rating of 3,000–5,000, these peppers deliver a balanced kick that enhances rather than overwhelms. Their thin skin and conical shape (4-5" long) make them ideal for drying, roasting, or fresh use. The name Mirasol—meaning "looking at the sun" in Spanish—reflects their sun-seeking growth habit, making them a stunning addition to any garden.

Key Features:

  • Heat Level: Medium (3,000-5,000 Scoville)
  • Flavor Profile: Spicy with fruity, berry-like notes
  • Growth: Upright pods on 18-24" tall plants
  • Versatility: Perfect for mole sauces, Peruvian cuisine, and more
  • GMO-Free: Heirloom, open-pollinated seeds

Growing Your Mirasol Chiles

Start your Mirasol New Mexico Chile Seeds indoors 8 weeks before the last frost. Plant in sterile soil, cover lightly, and maintain 85°F bottom heat for optimal germination (7-21 days). Transplant seedlings after 6 true leaves develop, spacing them 30" apart in rich soil or 5-gallon containers. Thrives in full sun!

Packet includes: 10 seeds

Bring the sun-kissed taste of New Mexico to your garden. Order your Mirasol Chile Seeds today and grow a pepper as unique as its flavor!

Big beautiful plant and loaded with sweet peppers. Used them in place of bell peppers and they were fantastic. They will be a repeat performer in my garden.

Pretty Pepper Plants! Very Ornamental & Tasty!

I love the erect habit of these pretty pepper plants! The seeds nearly all germinated (with the help of a seed mat), and their flavor is spicy with a little fruitiness. Delicious!

Great flavor on productive plants!

We loved having these good-looking Mirasol chilli plants in our garden. The peppers face up so they're quite ornamental too. They had a ton of chillies on them and they were delicious! Great germination, too.
