Product Description

High yields of extra-large peppers
Mild heat
Use fresh as poblanos, dried for ancho chiles
Good disease resistance

Produces high yields of extra-large poblano/ancho peppers with attractive, dark green, glossy fruit. Masivo Hybrid Hot Pepper's 7 1/2-in. fruits are very flavorful with a mild heat—and their size makes them excellent for stuffing and roasting. Poblano peppers, sometimes called Mexican chili peppers, are used green for flavoring and stuffing; they're also dried for ancho chile seasoning. The vigorous upright plants, grow 24-36 inches tall, and have good disease resistance. Peppers are a warm-season vegetable and seeds are usually started indoors. The plants are transplanted to the garden after danger of spring frost has passed. 70 DAYS.
