Lemon Spice Jalapeno
Lemon Spice Jalapeno

(NuMex) A stunning burst of fruity flavor and vibrant color makes this a super exciting new hot pepper! This colorful jalapeño was introduced by New Mexico State University. A sunny lemon yellow variety, it was bred using natural backcrossing techniques, resulting in fruity tasting, super eye-catching fruit. The NuMex series was created in response to America’s increasing appreciation for eating a rainbow of nutrition. Super ornamental and extremely prolific, these peppers produced huge harvests! This variety has major eye appeal and stands out in salsas and other fresh preparations; the color is stunning and really pops. Edible landscaping is a breeze with Lemon Spice; the sturdy plants are covered in sunny color. Great for mixed-bed or container planting. Thanks to Jim Duffy of Refining Fire Chiles for bringing this exciting new find to our attention!

Grew well. Large yield, beautiful color, thick walled. Made candied peppers to die for.

My first year with this pepper and its been very productive. Last week got my first one fully ripened and I was surprised at the sweetness. It has mild heat with a thick crunchy flesh.and they go from green to yellow very rapidly.

These have to be the best Jalapenos ive ever grown. The bushes are packed with good sized peppers. Be patient with them, once they start turning yellow you will be picking them every day. I was also surprised with the heat. Mine have a nice kick to them.

Cool Pepper to grow. Super productive.They start out looking like regular jalapenos and then once they get big there will be a spot of yellow on them, the next day they will be half yellow and the third day they will be completely yellow. I am freezing them as they ripen so at the end of the season I can make a yellow jalapeno hot sauce.

This is my first time with these and I'm quite happy with them. I started them in an unheated hoop-house in mid January, put them in the ground in mid march. They are growing well and producing like crazy. I've been adding them to salsa and making jelly with them. It looks like I'll have at least another month of them. Strong growers.

Purchased these in February and immediately planted them once i got them. I had 5-7 day germ rate and so far they are about 6 inches tall. Will be growing these next to habanero to spice them up. First time growing and will definitely keep it from year to year.
