Sun Exposure: full sun Level of Care: average
These little tomatoes resemble green Chinese lanterns due to the thin, papery husk surrounding the fruit. The 1 to 2 inch diameter fruits are firm with a zesty sweet and spicy flavor. Harvest when the fruits turn from green to light yellow and paper husk loosens. Fruits can be easily frozen. Determinate 4 foot plants yield prolifically. Days to maturity: 60. Seeds per packet: 25. Seeds per oz.: 9,500.

Infamous as the hottest chile of all. Estimated to be 30-50 times hotter than the Jalapeno! Closely related to Scotch Bonnet and Jamaican hot chiles.

Means "little raisin". Dark brown, elongated and tapering. Mildly hot. Excellent for making sauces, especially for seafood. One of the "holy trinity" of chiles used for making Mole Sauce.

Thick-fleshed, clean biting heat with a pleasantly high acidity. Often used as a substitute for the Thai Chile in the ratio of three fresh serranos to one Thai. Serrano means "highland" or "mountain".

Small green to red fiery hot peppers. Used in Southeast Asian cooking and decoratively in salads and noodle dishes. The real thing!

Rambling 3-4 foot plants that yield abundance of 2-3 ounce fruits. Delicious raw when purple and ripe. A must for salsa. Named "The Purple Field" because the whole field looks purple from its fruits!

Prolific purple plants yield 2-3 inch mildly hot fruits. It is a very attractive plant, both useful and ornamental.

A Hungarian heirloom, this highly ornamental plant grows 30 to 36 inches tall. Purple veins and beautiful purple flowers highlight its green foliage, while its fruits measure 2 to 3 inches and are similar in shape to Jalapenos. The difference is that they begin black ripening to red and are only mildly hot. 70-80 days from transplant. Photo courtesy of Seed Savers Exchange, Kent Whealy. .
