Skip to product information
Grow one of the oldest and most legendary chili peppers with Chiltepin Hot Pepper, a true wild-type pepper native to the Southwestern United States and Mexico. Often called the “mother of all peppers,” Chiltepin produces small, round fruits with intense heat and a quick, smoky bite that chili lovers prize.
Despite their tiny size, Chiltepin peppers pack serious heat and a complex flavor that is highly valued in Mexican cuisine. Peppers ripen from green to bright red and are traditionally used fresh, dried, crushed, or powdered. This variety is excellent for salsas, sauces, spice blends, soups, and infused oils. Plants have a naturally bushy habit and also make an attractive ornamental edible pepper.
