Pepper (Capsicum annuum)
Jalapeño peppers are moderately spicy and add wonderful flavor to a wide variety of cuisines. This Jalapeño variety is an early producer. We like to pickle Jalapeños and the rich spicy flavor goes into most of the meals we prepare.
Origin: We saved the parent seed of our Jalapeño many years ago when Papa worked on a farm in Ventura County, California.
(Approximately 25 seeds per packet)
Planting Instructions: We recommend starting peppers indoors in a sunny and warm location 4-6 weeks before last frost in spring. Plant outdoors in full sun after danger of frost in spring. Note: pepper seeds need soil temperatures to be at least 70 F to germinate and we use a heating pad under the seedling tray to maintain temperature.
