Historia y cultura

The Anaheim pepper descends from New Mexico chiles selected by horticulturist Dr. Fabian Garcia in the early 1900s. Seeds traveled to Southern California, where farmer Emilio Ortega cultivated them near Anaheim and popularized canned chiles. The pepper soon became a staple in West Coast kitchens and Tex-Mex restaurants. Today, Anaheim-type cultivars grow throughout the American Southwest and Mexico, bridging fresh produce aisles and industrial roasting lines.

Notas sobre botánica y cultivo

Start Anaheim seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the last frost. Keep seedlings warm, then transplant when nights stay above 13°C. Plants reach 60 to 90 cm tall and appreciate fertile, well-drained soil plus full sun. Provide even moisture and light feeding every three weeks. Harvest green pods about 75 days after transplant. Leave peppers on the plant longer for sweeter red fruit destined for drying.
