Pepper ~ Anaheim

A classic heirloom chile developed in the American Southwest, Anaheim peppers are prized for their long, tapered fruits and mild, approachable heat. Smooth, glossy green pods grow 6–8 inches in length, ripening to a rich red if left on the plant. The flavor is slightly sweet and earthy, making them ideal for roasting, stuffing, grilling, or drying. Productive plants perform well in Canadian gardens when given a warm, sheltered location or greenhouse support. A versatile kitchen staple, Anaheim peppers are perfect for everything from fresh salsas to traditional chile dishes. New Mexico Chili. 60-80 days green, 85-90 days red
