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.

Love Ms Junie!

I grew these on a whim, and am I glad that I did! High germination rate, and they grew quite vigorously! Dried and powdered the peppers...they are the secret ingredient in my chilli. Shh, that's a secret!😁

First time growing these and I will definitely be growing these every year. Just picked my last peppers November 1st before the frost hit my garden here in Ohio. Started the seeds inside in March and planted them at the end of May and the plants produced all summer long. roasted half of them when still green and the other half I let get red and made a fantastic red chili sauce. I also dehydrated a bunch of red ones to use later for more chili sauce. Peppers were thick walled with a good heat and a great taste.

Delicious Chile

It's hard to get New Mexico chile where we live in the Northeast, so it's wonderful to be able to grow these in our garden! They are delicious roasted on the grill and peeled, chopped, and added to anything and everything. Thanks for the seeds!

Red Hot Hatch

We love this red Hatch chile! The seeds were very viable, and the plants were super productive. We use these to try and make into powder for enchilada sauce. The best ever! We will be growing these every year.
