Padron pepper

Popular Spanish variety that is typically picked green, fried in oil, salted, and served as tapas. Fruits are blocky and thin skinned, and grow to 2-3 inches. Eating these peppers has an element of adventure, as a small percentage of them will be spicy while the majority are sweet with a unique, vegetal pungency. Plants grow to about 30″ and bear prolifically but do not require staking. 65 days green.
