Poblano Pepper

Poblano peppers are mild, dark green chilies from the Puebla region of Mexico, where they get their name. Heart-shaped and about 4 inches long, they offer a gentle spice of 1,000–2,000 Scoville Heat Units and feature thick, glossy skin. These upright, bushy, self-pollinating plants are low-maintenance and thrive in well-drained soil. Mulching helps retain moisture and regulate soil temperature, while proper spacing and watering prevent common issues. Companion planting with marigolds and garlic can naturally deter pests, keeping your plants healthy and productive.
