Organic Ancho Poblano Hot Pepper The mild heat that comes with the rich, fruity sweetness of Ancho Poblano makes this stout, heart-shaped pepper with a wide interior one of our favorites for stuffing, roasting, sauces, chile powder and chile rellenos. Dark green, immature 'poblano' peppers are perfect for rellenos; red, mature 'ancho' peppers make phenomenal chile powder when dry. Stout, multi-branching plants are reliably abundant even even cool summers.
68 days to green, 88 days to red maturity.
