Wow thanks to all suggestions so far. Since my space is kind of limited, I will have to whittle the list down to ~8-12 varieties max.
For sure I will be growing
- poblanos (aka ancho)
- jalapeno
- rocoto rojo (not sure the exact variety as the seeds came from my neighbors mom in Mexico.)
- rocoto orangy yellow (not sure the exact variety as the seeds came from another neighbors mom in Mexico.)
- chilhuacle negro - just cuz I have been waiting too long to taste this one.
- guajillo - cuz so many have recommended it.
- - 8 or 12 TBD based on continuing this discussion
