Jalapeno Jaloro Pepper Seed
- Low stock - 4 items left
This is the first jalapeño developed that is golden yellow. Oro means gold in Spanish, hence the name. Created by the Texas Agriculture Extension Service in 1992. Most significant, perhaps, is the fact that it is disease resistant to 6 types of viruses that often affect peppers.
Plants produce big yields of colorful yellow jalapeño peppers that are 2” long with juicy thick walls. The medium-hot fruits are milder than a regular jalapeño. The shorter 24” plants make this a good container variety. TMV resistant. Great for poppers, adding to salsas, or other dishes to add color and some heat.
The yellow Jalapeno Jaloro will turn from pale golden yellow to orange and eventually red if left to ripen on the plant.
