description

The Capsicum annuum ‘Jalapeño Tam’ hot pepper is an organic variety prized for its abundant production, good cold tolerance, and the culinary versatility of its fleshy fruits. In the garden, it forms a vigorous and well-branched plant that is covered with smooth peppers, first green then bright red when fully ripe, adding a vibrant touch to the vegetable patch. Its moderate heat makes it particularly interesting for those looking for a flavorful and accessible pepper that can enhance dishes without completely dominating other ingredients. The greener, milder fruits are well-suited for fresh preparations, while the red fruits develop a more assertive flavor and more pronounced heat. Easy to grow in a sunny location, this variety also stands out for its resistance to several common diseases, which reassures both beginner and experienced gardeners. Its prolonged harvest allows you to enjoy its peppers for a long time, both in the ground and in large containers. It is particularly popular for stuffings, tacos, nachos, or spicy jellies, as its crisp flesh lends itself to numerous recipes. Productive, decorative, and reliable, ‘Jalapeño Tam’ is an excellent choice for enriching the garden with a pepper that is both generous and easy to tame.
