Pepper Hot, Jalapeño Orange Spice

(NuMex) A colorful new “heirloom” introduced by New Mexico State University. This vibrant, tangerine-orange variety is extra tasty and makes an amazing salsa. Super ornamental and extremely prolific, these have a wonderful fruity-citrus taste and are packed with nutrition, and are only lightly spicy. A gourmet treat that adds flavor to the Jalapeno family!
