Hot Pepper Varieties

Jalafuego Jalapeno Peppers

I’ve been growing Jalafuego Jalapenos for quite a while.  This variety is a rock star in the garden!

Features:

1) This variety of jalapeno peppers are bigger than other varieties at 4 inches long.

2) If you like heat, these peppers are at the higher end of the Scoville heat rating for jalapenos.  The rating is 4,000 to 6,000.

3) Jalafuego Jalapeno Peppers plants are very productive.

4) They are resistant to some diseases!

5) The plants will get up to 3 feet tall and 2 feet wide.

6) You can harvest them green or red.  If you want to maximize the heat, then pick them when they start to turn from green to red!

7) Great for grilling and for making salsa.
