The Fresno chili pepper is a vibrant, medium-heat pepper known for its bright red color and versatile flavor. Maturing in about 70-80 days, these peppers start green and ripen to a brilliant red, with a heat level similar to jalapeños. Fresno chilis have a slightly sweeter and fruitier taste when fully ripe, making them perfect for salsas, sauces, and fresh use in salads. The plants are prolific and thrive in full sun with well-drained soil. Popular in both culinary and garden settings, Fresno chili peppers add a spicy kick and vibrant color to a variety of dishes. 2,500 to 10,000 Scoville Heat Units.
They germinated quickly and seem quite healthy
I've used this pepper in some of my dishes, such as sauces and salsas. I usually buy them, but they can be hard to find. They are similar to jalapenos, but there are flavor differences. Where jalapenos remind me of spicy bell peppers, the Fresno chili has fruity and smoky notes the jalapenos don't have even when ripe. MIGardener is my go-to seed shop because I know I'm getting high germination rates and excellent customer service. Offering free shipping on purchases over $19.99 on seeds is also a nice bonus.
They arrived when said, they should start sprouting in the next day or three. Give you a five when they sprout.
Great germination can’t wait to get them outside but it will be a while
Thank you again!
Looking forward to try these beautiful Chilli Peppers

I grew only a few seeds, but they came up fine, and I was able to get some delicious, sweet melon! I sprayed it once with a copper fungicide, and I should have done it a second time, but I still go melons. (I have a struggle with fungal problems here). Easy to grow, easy to eat!
This stuff feed my garden all summer. Highly recommend
This was one of my first tomatoes from MIgardener seed and I loved it so much. Very tasty green tomato, and even though it was only in a smallish container, it was one of my best producers! Nice clusters (not quite so big and dense as the photo, for me at least...) and great flavor for eating fresh in the garden. I'm not the best with tomatoes, I don't treat them as well as I should, and I grow in Seattle (8b?) which is finicky weather every year, so I was surprised these did so well! Will definitely grow again. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures saved on the vine, but the little green one in the attached photo is one of them!
Love sales. Time to stock up
Pollinators love this flower. Especially honey bees.
They grew in spring then reseeded themselves for fall.
