Capsicum annuum 'Poblano'


With roots tracing back to the Puebla region of Mexico, the Poblano Pepper is a staple in Mexican cuisine and is gaining popularity worldwide for its versatile culinary applications and notable health benefits. Whether you're a veteran green thumb or a budding home gardener, the Poblano Pepper is an excellent addition to your garden.

They yield a generous harvest of large, heart-shaped peppers. These peppers, typically harvested green, are known for their mild heat and deep, earthy flavor. When allowed to ripen to a red color, the peppers develop a sweeter taste and an even richer complexity. They land on the Scoville scale at around 1000 to 1500.

Health Benefits and Nutritional Content:

Poblano Peppers are not just flavorful, but they are also packed with nutritional benefits. They are an excellent source of vitamins, particularly Vitamin A and Vitamin C. A single pepper provides more than the daily recommended value of these vital nutrients, promoting good eye health and boosting the immune system. Poblano Peppers are also rich in B-vitamins, and they contain essential minerals like iron, magnesium, and potassium. In addition, the capsaicin found in these peppers can support healthy metabolism and potentially alleviate pain.
