Variety details & grower notes

🔥 Blazing heat meets legendary flavor. The Hatch Lumbre (Spanish for “fire”) is one of the hottest Hatch chile varieties ever developed—bringing bold, smoky Southwest flavor with a searing kick. Bred in New Mexico’s Hatch Valley and loved by heat-seekers, this chile delivers everything you want in a Hatch pepper—just cranked up to full flame.

 

These long, glossy pods grow 5–6 inches and ripen from green to deep red. Perfect for roasting, salsas, sauces, and drying into potent chile powder, Lumbre is your go-to for spicy authenticity in every dish. The plants are vigorous and productive, thriving in hot, sunny climates just like the Hatch Valley itself.
