Description:
Barker’s Hot Chili Pepper is an Anaheim-type with extra heat and terrific flavor. Developed from the selection of native New Mexican chilies (NuMex varieties), these peppers can grow well in hot and dry climates.
Grow these 2 ft. tall pepper plants and watch as these pods bloom to 5-7" long. Plants handle hot climates very well and can produce mature yields of these fruits within 80 days of planting. Pods will change from green to red, with the heat increasing the longer they stay on the plant.
The Barker's Hot chili pepper can be used just like an Anaheim pepper. Its thin walls make it great for roasting and frying but can also work well for canning or stuffing. This pepper can also be used for drying and, if you like adding a little spice to your food, go well in fresh food, too!
