Item description
This is the most beautiful and rarest of the Manzano/Rocoto chile peppers. It is a beautiful plant with light blue flowers, and it grows more delicately and slenderly than other manzano plants-more similar to the red teardrop variety in shape and habit of plant as well as shape and size of fruit. It's a great chili pepper.
Manzano BROWN Chile Pepper (Capsicum pubescens) is a species of the genus Capsicum (pepper) and also known as Rocoto Chile, AKA Chocolate Rocoto. They are indigenous to the cloud forests of Central and South America. Because of their evolution in cloud forests, they will grow and tolerate cool weather. (These are some of the only kinds of chilies that grow in cool fog, like is present in the Bay Area of California.) The species name, pubescens, means hairy, which refers to the hairy leaves of this pepper. The peppers have black seeds. They are perennial and live for years. They are muy caliente! Delicious with thick walls; they are best suited for sauce but dry well also if you give constant, firm dehydration to completely dry-then grind or crack for a wonderfully fruity, hot, savory flavour. They are excellent fresh or dried in stir-fry, eggs, stew, and anything else that goes well with fresh chilies. The beautiful chocolate brown color makes these chilies an excellent addition to your garden. They are extremely ornamental. They reach up to 5 feet tall if allowed to grow for several years in a light to no frost area. There are orange, red, and yellow varieties, plus baby red and yellow varieties as well. Also now available is the small Honey Badger rocoto.
Thank you for trying our amazing MANZANO pepper seeds.
More info on our rocote manzano chilies: Rocoto is the South American term for the chillies from the Capsicum pubescens species, while ?Manzano? means apple-shaped. ?Pubescens? means ?hairy? and comes from the fact that the leaves of the plants are hairy. The clearest differentiator from other species is the violet coloured, decorative flowers. It is worth overwintering Rocotos, as they can reach quite a high age. Because their stems lignify quickly, they are also referred to as ?tree chillies?. The Rocoto plants can tolerate the cooler nights of the Central European climate. With good care and the right conditions, Rocotos can live for 10-20 years or more.
The Rocoto Manzano fruits are thick-walled and juicy, and have a fantastic, fruity flavour which is reminiscent of apples. In South American countries, they also have the nickname ?Gringo killer? due to their spiciness. The Rocotos are excellent for making into salsas or for baking with various fillings. The most well-known recipe (Rocoto relleno - stuffed Rocotos) comes from Peru: Rocoto halves are pickled in milk overnight and then filled with mince, hard-boiled and chopped eggs, and topped with cheese.
Care: The germination temperature is between 20 and 28C (7 - 20 day germination period); therefore, the use of a greenhouse and a heating mat is recommended. The plants need fresh, well-fertilised, permeable soil, and do not tolerate waterlogging. They should be planted in a sunny, protected place with at least 6 hours of sunlight - preferably more. Put the plants outside approx. 2 to 3 weeks after the last frost. As the plants have a long ripening time and are perennial, they could be cultivated in pots (if you are in a frosty area), so that the plants can be brought inside when the temperature falls below 10C during the day. To overwinter after the harvest, cut back by 20 cm and put them in a light place with a temperature of at least 15C.

El chile Manzano MARRON (Capsicum pubescens) es una especie del genero Capsicum (pimiento) y tambien conocido como chile Rocoto, tambien conocido como Rocoto Chocolate. Es originario de los bosques nubosos de Centroamerica y Sudamerica. Debido a su evolucion en los bosques nubosos, crece y tolera el clima frío. (Estos son algunos de los únicos tipos de chiles que crecen en niebla fresca, como la presente en el Area de la Bahía de California). El nombre de la especie, pubescens, significa peludo, lo que se refiere a las hojas peludas de este chile. Los chiles tienen semillas negras. Son perennes y viven durante años. ¡Son muy picantes! Deliciosos con paredes gruesas; Son ideales para salsas, pero tambien se secan bien si se deshidratan constantemente y con firmeza hasta que esten completamente secos. Luego, se muelen o se parten para obtener un delicioso sabor afrutado, picante y sabroso. Son excelentes frescos o secos para salteados, huevos, guisos y cualquier otra cosa que combine bien con chiles frescos. Su hermoso color marron chocolate los convierte en una excelente adicion para su jardín. Son extremadamente ornamentales. Alcanzan hasta 1,5 metros de altura si se dejan crecer durante varios años en una zona con heladas ligeras o nulas.

Mas informacion sobre nuestros chiles rocote manzano: Rocoto es el termino sudamericano para los chiles de la especie Capsicum pubescens, mientras que "Manzano" significa con forma de manzana. "Pubescens" significa "peludo" y proviene del hecho de que las hojas de las plantas son peludas. La principal diferencia con otras especies son sus decorativas flores de color violeta. Merece la pena conservar los rocotos durante el invierno, ya que pueden alcanzar una edad bastante avanzada. Debido a que sus tallos se lignifican rapidamente, tambien se les conoce como "chiles de arbol". Las plantas de rocoto toleran bien las noches mas frescas del clima centroeuropeo. Con buenos cuidados y las condiciones adecuadas, los rocotos pueden vivir de 10 a 20 años o mas.
Los frutos del Rocoto Manzano son de paredes gruesas y jugosos, con un fantastico sabor afrutado que recuerda a la manzana. En países sudamericanos, tambien se les conoce como "asesinos de gringos" debido a su picante. Los rocotos son excelentes para preparar salsas o para hornear con diversos rellenos. La receta mas conocida (Rocoto relleno) proviene de Perú: las mitades de rocoto se encurten en leche durante la noche y luego se rellenan con carne picada, huevos duros y picados, y se cubren con queso.
Cuidado: La temperatura de germinacion es de entre 20 y 28 C (7-20 días de germinacion); por lo tanto, se recomienda el uso de un invernadero y una estera termica. Las plantas necesitan un suelo fresco, bien fertilizado y permeable, y no toleran el encharcamiento. Deben plantarse en un lugar soleado y protegido con al menos 6 horas de sol, preferiblemente mas. Saque las plantas al exterior aproximadamente de 2 a 3 semanas despues de la última helada. Dado que maduran durante mucho tiempo y son perennes, pueden cultivarse en macetas (si se encuentra en una zona con heladas), para poder meterlas al interior cuando la temperatura baje de los 10 C durante el día. Para que pasen el invierno despues de la cosecha, cortelas 20 cm y coloquelas en un lugar luminoso con una temperatura de al menos 15 C.
