{"product_id":"numex-orange-spice-jalapeno","title":"Orange Spice Jalapeno Pepper","description":"\u003cp\u003eOrange Jalapeño is an exceptionally productive, open-pollinated pepper variety that produces astonishing quantities of beautiful, bright orange jalapeños with outstanding flavor and a generous kick of heat. The compact plants are remarkably prolific, often carrying clusters of 10 or more peppers on a single branch! Slightly smaller than traditional jalapeños, these colorful peppers have a deliciously sweet, fruity flavor that makes them one of our favorite varieties for fresh eating and cooking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso known as NuMex Orange Spice, this distinctive jalapeño was developed at New Mexico State University's Chile Pepper Breeding Program and released in 2015. The result of years of careful selection, it combines the familiar shape and thick walls of a traditional jalapeño with an unusual orange color and considerably more heat. In our trials, the plants reached just 16 inches tall yet produced tremendous harvests throughout the summer and fall, making them an excellent choice for gardeners seeking outstanding productivity in a small space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrange Jalapeños are delicious in fresh salsa, pickles, and homemade hot sauces, but our favorite way to enjoy them is stuffed with cheese, wrapped in bacon, and baked into jalapeño poppers. On a mixed platter featuring several jalapeño varieties, these were always the first to disappear! Their slightly smaller size turned out to be an advantage, too—according to our family, it improves the bacon-to-pepper ratio. With their remarkable productivity, gorgeous color, and irresistible flavor, we really couldn't ask for more from a jalapeño. Harvests begin approximately 65 days after transplant. Each packet contains a minimum of 15 seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Orange Spice Jalapeno","offers":[{"title":"Packet (15 Seeds)","offer_id":67615961907449,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0955\/4450\/files\/orange-spice-jalapeno-pepper-seeds-1266600495.jpg?v=1794004329","url":"https:\/\/www.threshseed.com\/products\/numex-orange-spice-jalapeno","provider":"Thresh Seed Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
