School children, local groups, university groups, and individuals come every year to visit and tour our garden. Located in Las Cruces, New Mexico, the Garden not only has over 150 different varieties of chile from all of the main species of Capsicum: C. annuum, C. baccatum, C. chinense, and C. frutescens, but it also shows many of the different diseases, disorders, pests, and problems encountered by chile growers. The genus Capsicum includes all peppers, from the mildest bell to the hottest habanero.
