NEW MEXICO MINIS


In response to a demand for smaller decorative chiles these special hybrids were developed at New Mexico State University. They are similar in shape and color to the larger decorative New Mexico chiles (see preceding pages) but measure only 2 to 3 inches long and about 1/2 inches across. Mainly used to make small chile wreaths and ristras.
