Serrano Chili seeds 15+ and 15 similar items

Serrano peppers are my favorite for fresh eating. They taste great in beans and rice, salsa, stir fry, rancho huevos, and anything else that is enhanced by a fresh chili. They are delicious raw in salsa or cooked in that pot of beans. Yes, they are pretty hot (similar to a jalapeno) but with a flavor all its own. Open-pollinated. Heirloom. These peppers are eaten either green or ripe (when they are a bright red) either way they are the best dam peppers you'll ever taste! 75 days from transplant. Serrano Pepper is slender 2" dark green. Peppers are super-hot. Plant height 30" to 36". Widely used in Mexico and the Southwest they are extremely productive. We find they last well for fresh storage.
