Capsicum annuum

Chiles rellenos, we'd take you over Disneyland any day! Thanks, Anaheim!

Very productive, 2 1/2' tall plants yield dozens of 6" long, skinny fruits that have a distinct flavor (brought out well by roasting and/or combining with eggs!) and vary in heat from mild to mildly hot. Open-pollinated. 80 days.

Seeds grown by Rich Felton in Rawlins, Wyoming, Swift River Farm in Salmon, Idaho and Twisp River Seed in Twisp, Washington.

30 seeds.

Indigenous people in modern day Mexico domesticated chiles from their wild crop ancestor the Chiltepin thousands of years ago, adapting it into so many unique and delicious varieties. When the European colonizers came, they took chiles back to Europe, referring to them as peppers because of their spicy flavor, which reminded them of peppercorns. Now chiles are beloved and cultivated by cultures all over the world, and despite the devastating legacy of colonization, the descendants of their original seed stewards continue to persist and cultivate them today.

Directions: Start seeds indoors 8 weeks before last frost. Use bottom heat to aid germination and be patient. Transplant after frost. Pick often for best production.
