Serrano Chili Pepper – A Beautiful Spicy Flavored Chilli – 20 Seeds

The serrano pepper is originated in the mountainous regions of the Mexican states of Puebla and Hidalgo. It refers to the sierras mountains of these regions.

The plant is a very high yield variety. Serrano pepper plants can reach up to 1.2 in height. Peppers are green when young and turns red at maturity. A single plant can yield dozens of peppers and they can be harvested while they are green or red.

The Scoville rating of the serrano pepper can go up to 25,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU) where a Jalapeno pepper produces between 3,500-8,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU)!!!

If you want to try medium hot chilli then I would recommend this. They have a beautiful spicy flavor and notably hotter than the jalapeno chilli. This fleshy chilli can be eaten as raw, making salsa and can be used in curry as well. They are most used chili peppers in South america especially in Mexican cuisine. ^

They are very easy to grow & easy to maintain. This plant will continuously produce chilli for 5/6 months each year. Best time to sow seeds after frost. Seeds need min 20°C to germinate. With a proper care in frosty time this will survive up to 3 years.
