5,000-15,000 SHU. The Serrano pepper is a small, slender chili known for its bright, crisp flavor and moderate to high heat. Native to the mountainous regions of Mexico, it typically measures 2–4 inches long and matures from green to vibrant red. It’s hotter than a jalapeño but still approachable for most spice lovers. Serranos are commonly used fresh in salsas, sauces, and pickled preparations, retaining their heat even when cooked. Their thin skin makes them ideal for blending without peeling. Popular in Mexican and Southwestern cuisine, serranos offer bold flavor and fiery versatility.
*Mature peppers can range from green to orange to red.
haven't started the seeds yet, but I am so excited to for next year!
Excited to try
Fast delivery! Cant wait to plant next spring!
Fast delivery and great service everytime. The quality I receive from Migardener is always top notch.
Sturdy plants that are very productive. Perfect for when you want a bit more heat in your salsa than most jalapenos provide.
Last year I decided to plant a "tunnel" of sunflowers on the other side of my tall blueberry bushes and these added a colorful variety to the typical yellow! These are now a favorite that will be a "grow again!"
I received a packet of this mix with a previous greenstalk order through MIgardener (best price around!) and was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to grow and how delicious it was! I’ve never grown salad greens before and this was the perfect mix. Even after burning out on gardening late in the summer, I will always look forward to growing this salad green mix in the spring. Thanks for introducing me!
Our banana peppers arrived fairly quickly, even though there was a winter storm in Michigan.
I'm sure they will do well, as most seeds from Migardener do well.
I’ve been growing these for multiple years now. I love all the little surprises that come up. I have quite a collection of cactus plants now, thanks to these seed packets.
Excellent germination! Excellent packaging! Probably jumped the gun a bit but only planted 6 seeds for now!
