HEB Chile plants

hoefarmer · July 31, 2015

Went by my local HEB(El Campo) and had to buy chile plants today. they were grown by Natures Herb Farm in San Antonio. They were in 5" pots for $4.00. the plants were BEAUTIIFUL, Selection included Tricolor, pequin, chiltepequin, hatch, early jalapeno, orange thai, habs, and scotch bonnet.

I bought a purple fruited pequin. If you go see them, you will go home with one.

Hoe-There is no variety named "Hatch." Hatch is a town in New Mexico that was about an hour from where we used to live. We would drive down there at harvest to buy our green chile. So the variety could be anything from a mild green chile to smoking hot. Just FYI. A lot of people think Hatch is a variety.

I know there is no Hatch variety. I also think that anyone that does or reads about gardening knows that a Hatch chile is an Aneheim type usually roasted before consuming.
