Annual50,000-100,000 SHU. The Chiltepin pepper is a wild, heirloom variety native to the southwestern United States and Mexico. Known as the “mother of all peppers,” it produces tiny, round to oval fruits about 0.25 inches in diameter. Despite their small size, Chiltepin peppers pack a fiery punch. The peppers ripen from green to a vibrant red and have a smoky, fruity flavor. Chiltepin plants are hardy perennials in warm climates and grow up to 4 feet tall. They are often used in salsas, hot sauces, and traditional Mexican dishes. Expect 50,000-250,000 Scoville Heat Units depending on the season and your location.
I planted these in May and they took awhile to produce. By August/September, I had a bunch of little peppers. They grew until mid November in Georgia. These peppers are small but hot.
Plenty of pepper.
No latin name on packet
These seeds are hard to germinate. I would say they can take weeks to germinate and they grow slow. Start them early. Sow more than you think. Keep constant warm temps. I wrap the seeded cells with saran wrap or put them in plastic containers that close.
I RECEIVED MY SEED QUICK..AND have seedlings sprouting up. Due to cool weather and my potting cups located outside my chiltepin pepper seed has just began to show its self..... but my supernova tomato seeds (which are my favorite and have ordered for the second year) came up quickly and have been planted in my garden....look forward to ordering your seed next year.......thanks for the affordable seed

I've grown this variety of zucchini for 3 seasons in both 7 gal and 100 gal fabric pots. It grows very well and produces very well. We like the flavor and texture much more than green/black zucchini. Easily hand pollinated.
Arrived quickly, can't wait to plant this for spring
I've not had them sprout yet, as I've winter sown them and expect their tini-ness to be visible next spring and I'll plant them then...But, Your seeds are always viable, so I've no doubt they will be great in this instance also.
If a flower could wink, the Chocolate Cherry Sunflower absolutely would. These seeds don’t just grow—they perform. I planted them expecting a pretty pop of color. What I got was a full-on backyard drama starring velvety mahogany petals, smoldering ruby undertones, and bees treating them like a five-star resort.
These little overachievers sprout fast, grow strong, and then burst into velvety red-and-chocolate blooms that look like sunflowers dressed for a black-tie gala.
They’re bold, dramatic, and total showstoppers—the kind of flowers that make neighbors slow down and ask what on earth you planted.
If you want something easy, reliable, and downright stunning, this is the sunflower. Honestly? They’ve ruined plain yellow sunflowers for me. 🌻🍒✨
Planted this is in my side yard, just gorgeous, tons of butterflies and pollinators all year, going to get more and do more areas, maybe even some graffitti gardening
