Exotic and rare, the Purple Tiger Pepper draws you to its lair with foliage in variegated colors of white, green, and purple. Slowly, slowly you’re mesmerized by the 1"-2" tapered fruit that starts off green, creeping to purple with a lighter, rosy striped pattern that ripens fully to red. And then it pounces with a low growl of heat, twice as hot a jalapeño. Stuff with cream cheese for some purple poppers, or pickle a peck of them to sprinkle on nachos.

If you’re looking for the Chile Relleno pepper, you’ve found it. Except it goes by the name of Poblano. Prolific plants put out muchos 4"-8" thick-skinned, tapered fruits that start out a deep dark green with mild heat and earthy flavor. That’s when this pepper (chile) is most often roasted, peeled, and stuffed full (relleno) of meat and cheese. Let it ripen on the vine and the color changes to a deep dark brownish-red that’s much spicier. Or dry it, and you’ll have an Ancho pepper to flake or powder. This one will keep your oven busy all summer long.

About this variety:

• One of the best tasting of the fingerling potato varieties.
• It has rosy-buff skin with deep yellow flesh (blushed with red).
• Excellent for potato salad.
• Produces lots of medium-sized, well-clustered potatoes.
• Very good roasted over the coals.
• The tubers are long-keeping and the vines are very vigorous.
• Be careful not too overcrowd this variety.

 

We do not use chemicals to prevent our potatoes from sprouting. So the seed potatoes you order may have already begun to sprout when they arrive. This is okay-in fact some consider it desirable.

How to Plant Garlic

Garlic can be planted in the spring as soon as the ground can be worked, but fall planting is recommended. Bulbs will grow bigger and more flavorful when you plant them in the fall.  Plant 6 to 8 weeks before your first hard frost.  In southern areas, February or March can be a better time to plant.

Key Planting Info:

• Break apart cloves from bulb but keep the papery husk on each individual clove.
• Ensure soil is well-drained with plenty of organic matter. Plant in Full Sun.
• Plant 4 inches apart & 2 inches deep, in their upright position (the wide end down and pointed end facing up).
• Come springtime, shoots will begin to emerge.

DO NOT WET THEM NOR STICK THEIR ROOTS IN WATER. Unpack them and store them in a cool, dry place until it is time to plant. They should last about 3 weeks kept this way. Do not worry that your plants seem dry. They will "shoot" new roots and new, green tops as soon as they are planted.
