NuMex Centennial

Description

The NuMex Centennial is a stunning chili pepper variety developed by the renowned Chile Pepper Institute at New Mexico State University. It stands out for its vibrant, ornamental appeal and subtle heat, making it a perfect dual-purpose plant for both the home gardener and the culinary enthusiast.

With its dazzling color transitions, NuMex Centennial peppers begin as a green and deep violet and mature through shades of orange and red, providing a striking visual display. The plant itself is compact, making it ideal for container gardening or small spaces, yet it produces a generous amount of peppers throughout the growing season.

These chilis are more than just a visual delight. While they pack a mild-medium heat (around 30,000-50,000 SHU), the flavor is bright and fresh, making it a wonderful addition to salsas, salads, and even as a garnish for a touch of heat. This variety brings a balance of beauty and taste, perfect for chili enthusiasts who appreciate both aesthetics and flavor in their garden.

Each pack contains approximately 8–10 or more seeds per variety.
Seeds are packaged in a certified EU seed packaging facility in accordance with applicable regulations.
