PURPLE TIGER JALAPEÑO PEPPER SEEDS

Purple Tiger Jalapeño Pepper Seeds – 10+ Florida Grown Seeds

Fierce looks, bold flavor. The Purple Tiger Jalapeño isn’t just a pepper—it’s a garden showstopper. With striking variegated foliage in green, white, and purple, this ornamental beauty produces small, glossy pods that ripen from green to deep purple and eventually red. It’s spicy, stunning, and a total head-turner in containers or flower beds.

Despite its flashy appearance, this jalapeño-style pepper packs a real punch, with medium heat and a slightly smoky flavor. The fruits are smaller than traditional jalapeños—about 1.5 to 2 inches—but their flavor is bold, making them perfect for salsa, hot sauce, or small-batch pickling. Bonus: the foliage alone makes it worth growing.
