Jalapeño Brown is a richly flavored jalapeño-type pepper, usually mild to medium, with a gentle smoky sweetness that sets it apart.
1,000-8,000 SHU. Jalapeño Brown is a richly flavored jalapeño-type pepper, usually mild to medium, with a gentle smoky sweetness that sets it apart. Thick-walled, juicy pods ripen from deep green to a glossy chocolate brown, typically reaching about 4 to 6 inches long and perfect for stuffing, roasting, pickling, or slicing into salsa. Vigorous, high-yielding plants commonly grow 2 to 4 feet tall and may need staking when loaded with fruit. Expect harvest in about 70 to 80 days from transplant, and enjoy a classic jalapeño punch with an earthier, more complex finish.
