Craig's Grande Jalapeno Pepper Seed

Kick it up a notch! A big, fat jalapeño that’s perfect for salsa. Award-winning peppers are a good size: 3-4” long. Stocky plants are loaded with hefty, thick-fleshed fruits from mid-summer until frost. Excellent for roasting, stuffing, drying, pickling or just slicing up fresh. The redder they get, the hotter they get! Scoville rating: 2.0-4.5. Deer- and rabbit-resistant. Photo courtesy of Baker Creek Heirloom Seed.
