Tiger Jalapeño: The Striped Ornamental Classic
The Tiger Jalapeño pepper (Capsicum annuum) is a visually stunning variety that results from crossing a traditional Jalapeño with an ornamental pepper (such as the Purple Tiger). This hybrid was created to offer the familiar heat of the Jalapeño but with exotic and unique beauty, both in the fruit and the foliage.
The fruits have the classic Jalapeño shape, 5 to 8 cm long. Its most distinctive feature is its transition colors: the peppers exhibit a pattern of dark green and light green stripes that, as they mature, transform into red and dark stripes. The final mature fruit is usually red with stripes.
This pepper is equally ornamental for its foliage. The plants often feature variegated leaves, with spots of green, purple, and even creamy-white, making the Tiger Jalapeño one of the most beautiful varieties to grow in pots or gardens.
Low Intensity and Country Flavor.
Degree of Pungency (Controllable Medium): The Tiger Jalapeño maintains the accessible heat level of the Jalapeño pepper. Its Scoville Scale rating typically varies between 3,000 and 10,000 Scoville Units (SHU). This is a pleasant level of spiciness without being overwhelming, perfect for fresh consumption and for those who enjoy a regular touch of heat.
The flavor is the familiar Jalapeño flavor: fresh, herbaceous, with earthy and slightly acidic notes, making it extremely versatile. When mature (red), it may present an additional touch of sweetness, with the Purple Tiger genetics adding subtle complexity.
The Tiger Jalapeño is the perfect choice for the home cook who wants a classic, usable heat with a stunning appearance in the garden.
Tiger Jalapeno - SHU 10,000. Pack of 10 selected seeds, with identification sticker of species, origin and heat.
