Description

A reliable jalapeno that produces firm glossy fruits with a warm balanced heat and strong cropping potential.

Jalapeno M is a classic kitchen favourite known for its thick crisp flesh and steady heat that suits a wide range of dishes from salsas to grilling

The fruits develop on sturdy upright plants and begin as deep green pods before maturing to a rich red shade bringing both flavour and colour to the garden

Their firm walls give a satisfying bite when used fresh and hold their shape well when stuffed grilled or sliced for pickling making this variety a versatile choice for home growers

Plants grow with a compact structured habit and carry their fruits neatly along the stems creating a clean productive look that fits easily into containers raised beds and sunny borders

This variety performs well in warm bright conditions and free draining soil where it produces consistent yields through the summer and early autumn

Gardeners appreciate Jalapeno M for its dependable cropping early maturity and adaptable flavour which works beautifully in both fresh and preserved recipes

Fruits can be harvested green for the familiar jalapeno taste or left to ripen to red for a sweeter deeper heat and they store well when frozen or pickled
