Santa Fe Grande Pepper Seeds - A Colorful, Flavorful Heirloom Delight

Discover the vibrant beauty and bold flavor of Santa Fe Grande Pepper Seeds, one of our most popular heirloom varieties. These stunning peppers showcase a mesmerizing display of yellow, orange, and red hues-all on the same plant at once! Known as "chile guero" (blonde chile) in Mexico, this wax-type heirloom is as ornamental as it is delicious.

Why Grow Santa Fe Grande Peppers?

Triple-Color Spectacle: Enjoy a living rainbow in your garden as peppers mature from bright green to sunny yellow, then fiery orange, and finally a glossy red-all at the same time!

Perfect Medium Heat: With a Scoville rating of 3,000-5,000, these 3" peppers offer just the right kick for salsas, pickling, and fresh eating. Their thick flesh holds up beautifully in recipes.

Prolific Producer: Compact 30" plants bear fruit continuously all summer long, making them ideal for gardens or large containers (5-gallon minimum).

Growing Your Santa Fe Grande Peppers

Each packet contains 10 GMO-free seeds ready to bring life to your garden. For best results:

  • Start indoors 8 weeks before last frost
  • Plant 1/4" deep in sterile media with 85°F bottom heat
  • Transplant after 6 true leaves appear
  • Space 30" apart in rich soil or large containers
  • Harvest at yellow stage (or wait for orange/red maturity)

These open-pollinated heirloom seeds (Capsicum annuum) mature in just 78 days, rewarding you with a bounty of beautiful, flavorful peppers.
