Jes’s Purple Orange

Jes’s Purple Orange Jalapeño – 10+ Florida Grown Seeds

 Color-shifting heat with garden flair. Bred by Jes Christensen, this unique jalapeño hybrid brings the drama with deep purple pods that ripen to a blazing orange, often displaying both colors at once in a mottled, fiery blend. It’s a cross between Black Jalapeño and 3-Color Cayenne, and the result is pure eye candy—with a kick.

The peppers pack a solid heat (spicier than your average jalapeño), and their compact, dark-foliaged plants make them perfect for containers, patios, or standout garden beds. Great for pickling, grilling, or slicing raw if you’re bold.
