Jalapeño

A fiery, hard-bodied icon of the garden, slick, bold, and utterly impossible to resist. He throbs with heat and promise, standing tall and teasing, every inch of him begging for attention. His thick, glossy fruits are packed with fire, ready to thrill your taste buds and leave you and your garden gasping for more.

Sowing & Growing
Awaken him indoors from February to March, letting him stretch, flex, and unfurl in warm, indulgent soil. After the last frost in late May, move him outdoors into a sunny, sheltered spot where he can strut, swell, and show off every inch of his hot, muscular body. Give him room to rise tall and proud — he loves space to flex, tease, and dominate the plot.

Care & Conditions
Keep him teasingly moist — never drowned — and he’ll respond with lush, eager growth. Feed him weekly once he start showing off his flower, stake him as he grows taller, and pinch out early flowers to make him bushier and more generous. He thrives on attention, loves being handled just right, and rewards every touch with thick, fiery fruits that make your mouth water.

Harvesting
Claim his peppers from August onwards, when they’re full, firm, and blazing with heat. Pick regularly, and he’ll keep giving — eager, bold, and endlessly indulgent. Your Jalapeño is a sultry stallion of the kitchen, turning every dish, every bite, into a hot, naughty delight that leaves you coming back for more.
