Spice up your garden and your meals with Malagueta Pepper Seeds, the vibrant and intensely hot chili pepper that's a staple in Brazilian cuisine. Known for its unique flavor and fiery kick, this heirloom variety is perfect for pepper enthusiasts and lovers of bold, spicy foods.
These open-pollinated, GMO-free seeds produce small, tapered peppers that grow up to 2" long on lush, shrubby plants. Starting green and maturing to a deep red, Malagueta peppers pack a serious punch with a Scoville heat rating of 60,000-100,000. Their distinct taste sets them apart from other chili peppers, making them a favorite for hot sauces, vinegar brines, and condiments.
Each packet contains 10 seeds, ready for you to start indoors 8 weeks before the last frost. With proper care, using sterile media, 85°F bottom heat, and bright light, your Malagueta Pepper Seeds will germinate in 7-14 days. Transplant seedlings once they develop 6 true leaves, spacing them 30" apart in rich soil or patio containers. In just 100 days, you'll be harvesting vibrant red peppers bursting with flavor.
Whether you're crafting authentic Brazilian dishes or simply love the thrill of growing hot peppers, these heirloom Malagueta Pepper Seeds deliver exceptional results. Add a touch of South American heat to your garden. Order your seeds today and start growing your own fiery harvest!
I have always had very good results
with seed purchased from Sandia Seed Co.
The Malagueta peppers were a bit slow to germinate
but that is normal with some pepper types

Love these chiles, nice and hot with lots of flavor.
I love trying new peppers, and just ordered these Malagueta seeds. Can't wait to see how they grow! Thanks-

Plants each produced dozens of beautiful peppers. Still going strong in October in Virginia
Serrano Hidalgo Seeds fromSandia Seed produce even in the HOT drought of central Illinois this year! I love adding a little Mexican kick to my salsa but also tossing these on the grill! They have great flavor and produce all summer long!
Quintessence of pepper flavor. Productive plant. Definitely will grow again.
I had looked high & low, and searched the web with many word combinations ‘looking’ specifically for my favorite chili, the Dynamite xx Hot… so I could grow my own. The peppers were sold in Colorado at select places during roasting season, but you couldn’t buy seeds for them… anywhere!
Finally, as luck and persistence would have it, I discovered Sandia Seed Company.
Thank you Sandia! I planted them and had a great crop this year. I plan on growing them every year as well as trying some of their other seeds,
There's just something fun about growing a jalapeno that is light enough in color that some people think it's a banana pepper. LOL! I picked these just for color variety, and I'm very pleased that my plants have been loaded with them all season! We donated about 50 lbs of mixed peppers this year from our garden and I still had enough to freeze some and can more jars of recipes than we'll probably be able to use before next season. All my peppers were from Sandia Seed Company. I've never had such great pepper production before using these seeds!!
Excellent peppers, large and meaty. Easy to grow from your seeds.
This spinach germinated well, and produced way more spinach than I'd initially expected. It grew really well, was slow to bolt in the summer, and has a really nice mild flavor for salads or steamed.
Love this Hatch variety chili, next best thing to living in New Mexico! Yep, they grow in Oklahoma too!
This was my first time growing these and I will definitely be growing them from now on. Great germination and very sturdy plants that have withstood some really high winds. Huge long peppers that are excellent green or red, very easy to peel skin.
Growing these in Florida, (Recent transplant of NM).
Lovely peppers. Took a couple weeks is all and wow! I have several budding; 2 large enough to nickname. They're still in their infancy, but I can tell they are going to be great! Love the seeds!
Prudens purple was huge, productive, and delicious. Very crack resistant. Amazing!
I got these to make Chipotle chilis. These fruit early and are mild-ish when green, but when they ripen, they are perfect for smoking and drying with great flavor and nice heat. Don't plant too many as they are quite prolific.
I grow chilis for seed from Sandia in Wichita Kansas. They take longer for harvesting but make great roasting Chilis. I call them WichiHatch Chilis.
Seeds were amazing with great germination rates. Very stable strain that had little to no variation between plants! Will be running them again!
Just as described. Wonderful Habanero flavor without the heat. This makes the best Chili and we love the flavor.
