Small fruits, less than 0.5 inch wide and less than 1 inch long, plants bear well over a long season.
The fresh fruits have a fruity, citrusy and nutty flavor. When smoked, the flavor is more pronounced. Greener peppers are typically used for making salsas and other dishes. As they ripen to red and get hotter, they are usually dried or smoked and made into flakes or powders.
This chile pepper was developed and released at New Mexico State University, and named in honor of Mr. Alton L. Bailey, NMSU's extension vegetable specialist emeritus, who helped evaluate this selection. NuMex Bailey is unique because the fruit falls from the stem at maturity, making machine harvesting possible.
