Biggie Chile<sup>™</sup> Hybrid Hot Pepper

Biggie Chile Hybrid Hot Pepper

Perfect for Roasting!

  (2 customer reviews)



Improved version of Big Chile II keeps Big Chile’s wonderful qualities: early maturity, impressive yield and big, up to 9-in. fruit. Now, stronger plants provide better protection from sunburn. Mildly pungent Anaheim type, perfect for roasting, fajitas or eating fresh in salads. Ripens to red. 68 DAYS.

Seed counts: 100 seeds sow a 20-ft. row.

Seeds will be shipped within 5-10 days of your order.

Plants ship only in the spring. If our spring shipping season is closed, your order will be shipped the following spring.

Comments: This is an improved version of Big Chile II—easier to grow because the plant is stronger and offers better protection to the fruit from sunburn. Keeps all the great qualities of Big Chile- early maturity, impressive yield, big fruit (up to 9”) but increased vigor. Perfect for roasting, mixing with fajitas, slicing in salads. Mild pungency, good for fresh eating (500 scovilles). Resistant to PMMV (pepper mild mottle virus ).

Fantastic Rellenos
Reviewed By: Amy Harrison (Indianapolis, IN)
We grew these chiles last year and loved them so much we're growing them again this year. We stocked our freezer full of green chiles and made some of the best Chile Rellenos we've ever had.

Pretty good.

I have been growing Hybrid Big Chiles for several years, and must say I really prefer them. These are good, but did not produce the number of chiles nor the size of chiles I had been getting. I am hoping to find the originals somewhere.
