Grown using 100% renewable energy!

This set of three seedlings contains three of our range of Jalapeno varieties - perfect for anyone who loves a versatile kitchen chilli - stuff them, fry them, pickle them, slice them, anything goes!

The varieties included in this set are:

1.Classic Jalapeno

This is the chilli we make our Jalapeno sauce from. Fresh Jalapenos are great in salsas, thinly sliced for nachos or pizza toppings, or pickled to preserve them. When ripe, they are often smoked and dried and are then called Chipotle and used to flavour sauces, soups and stews. The plants are upright, 3 to 4 feet tall with woody stems. The fruits take about 75 days from sowing to harvest with each plant producing 20 to 30 fruits which are typically 8 to 10cm long and 2 to 3cm wide and conical. The plants usually need some support as they start to fruit, to avoid branches being broken by the weight of fruit. The heat level of Jalapenos is around 6000-8000 Scoville Heat Units.

2. Jalapeno Pinata

A colourful variant of the classic Jalapeño. This plant produces fruits with vibrant colours from yellow through to orange and red. It was developed by the New Mexico State University. Approx. 50,000 SHUs.

3. Jalmundo

A cross between a bell pepper and a Jalapeño and was developed by the New Mexico State University. At approx. 17,000 SHUs, it is hotter and larger than the classic Jalapeño. 

SHU = Scoville Heat Units

Plug plants offer a quick and easy way to start your chilli growing season.

Information

We try our best to keep this list up to date. However, if the varieties advertised are not available at the time of packing, the best substitute will be used.

Growers Guide

These chilli seedlings respond well to warmth as young plants; 25°C is the ideal temperature.

Seedlings will need to be potted on. We recommend using Fertile Fiber peat-free compost. We use this product ourselves and found that it has the best properties compared to all the other pear-free composts currently available. Note that any additional items bought together with pre-order seedlings will be shipped at the same time as the seedlings when they are ready which is normally from March to May.

Shipping

Seeds are sown in Jan or Feb and we start sending our plants as soon as they are ready. Plug plants are usually available to ship from about the end of March onwards. But this is very weather dependent and can vary by several weeks. We will endeavor to notify our customers when the seedlings are likely to be ready closer to the time of shipping.

Two delivery options are available, Royal Mail and DPD, and both offer tracking. However, while the DPD is a next day service, Royal Mail is a 48-hour service, so naturally, the DPD price will will be higher. Shipping prices will be calculated based on the quantity of items in your cart and will be clearly displayed at checkout before you pay. The seedlings can survive for serval days in the post since they are well watered before shipping and a few days without light will not harm the seedlings. 

Please be aware that if you place an order that contains a mix of 'pre-order' and 'buy it now' items, your order may be delayed until all items are ready to send. This is because we aim to send your entire order in one shipment. Thank you for your patience.

Please let us know if you have any special delivery instructions at checkout.
