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!
