Padron

Classic padron – very similar to the cubanelle. The fruit is a bit smaller than cubanelle. Our newest mild offering! Most popular as a frying pepper. This Capsicum annuum, is a traditional Spanish variety. It has a mild, grassy flavor and its famous “roulette-style” heat. A little inconsistency every now and again you will get a hot one. I guess you could call that the spice of life .

Most pods are gentle, but an occasional one delivers a surprising kick. The fruits are thin-walled, wrinkled, and typically harvested green at 2–3 inches, making them ideal for quick blistering in olive oil or roasting whole. Plants are fast-growing and productive, offering dependable yields well-suited for containers or garden beds.
