The Jalapeno Tam Peppers grow on a sturdy compact plant that grows upright on a solid bush type habit and reaches about 40-61 cm (16-24") in height with a spread that reaches 40-45 cm (16-18”) wide. We provide additional support for most of our pepper plants, especially if they are prolific producers. Jalapeno Tam are a very productive plant with each plant yielding about 40 or more peppers. Peppers are a deep glossy emerald green that turn bright red when mature. The conical shaped fruit average 7.5-10 cm (3-4”) long and 2.5-3.8 cm (1-1½”) wide at the shoulder. They are thick walled, mildly pungent, and crack-resistant. Jalapeno Tam peppers are best used when they are green.

Additional Information
Jalapeno Tam peppers are known as the “Gringo Pepper” and are considered a very mild pepper with their 1000 SHU rating. They are a very flavorful pepper with a zesty flare. The heat can be removed completely by removing the pepper seeds and ribs before eating. When peppers are done growing they will pull off the plant very easily. If they don't come off easily they are still growing. Slice peppers up and freeze them in a container for use as fresh peppers on pizza, soups and salads or use a dehydrator and dry them. We freeze and dry all our peppers for a variety of uses. Harvesting “Hot Peppers” is task that is best completed wearing latex or rubber gloves to prevent any accidents. Hot peppers contain organic chemicals called capsaicinoids which can burn sensitive skin, your eyes, your mouth, and other sensitive areas. Use a good pair of scissors to cut the peppers from the bush. Picking them off usually will result in breaking off branches. To prolong a pepper harvest, cut peppers from the plant regularly. |
