Description:

Be prepared when growing this giant NuMex pepper! NuMex Big Jim peppers have been a famous green chile used by chefs throughout New Mexico for decades, but now, this pepper is officially listed in the Gunness Book of World Records for producing the world's largest pepper pod at 13.5" long!

Expect these huge pods to grow on easy-to-maintain pepper plants that are very productive. NuMex Big Jim peppers will reach 12" long on a consistent basis and will mature from green to emerald green, and then to red. These are meaty pods that have been a fan favorite for quite some time!

If you prefer flavor over heat, the Big Jim peppers from the New Mexico State Univerity Chili Pepper Institute are the one for you. They have a sublime flavor with a hint of spice, just a tad spicier than sweet peppers, which is great for families or for guests who don't like things too hot. The Big Jim chili pepper is best used in Chile Rellenos, stuffed peppers, and other Mexican cuisines. This is one of the best green peppers out there, so be sure to start growing some of your own today!
