LET197 Garden Salsa ( Mildly hot pepper )
Developed just for salsa, this medium-hot chile pepper turns out to be heavy bearing and delicious, too! Boasting just the right amount of heat, it can be picked green for salsa or allowed to turn red for full nutritional kick and use in salads, sauces, and more!
Garden Salsa Hybrid scores 3,000 Scovilles on the heat index, which gives it a nice little bite in salsa but doesn't produce so much heat that diners have to be warned before they try it! It's a great all-purpose pepper, because it does offer a nicely nuanced flavor that works in a variety of dishes. Great for adding a zesty kick to homemade salsas, but also chili and other dishes. Fruits are 8" long by 1" across, usually picked green for salsa (they mature red), and classed as mildly-hot. Peppers get hotter in dry weather. 75 Days
