Poblano Pepper 'Trident'
Pre-order for local pick-up available as early as April 15.
‘Trident’ is a poblano/ancho pepper that has intense flavor, high quality, two-lobed fruit and just the right amount of heat. The dark and glossy peppers are as consistent as it gets. The fruit can be consumed fresh or dried and the plants do well in many soils and climates. What’s not to like?
FYI - Trident poblanos are a mild heat pepper, ranging from 250-1,500 SHU. It’s a nice addition to your garden if jalapeños are on the hot side for you. Read more below.

A Note from the Grower
Sometimes, all you need is some spice. Find all levels of heat in my hot pepper selections this year. From a classic jalapeño to my latest addition, ‘Spitfire’ Anaheim chile, you should be able find the heat you’re searching for this summer. Read more about pepper plant care in the Plant Guide.
A word of caution to those handling hot peppers, avoid touching your face when harvesting. The oils in peppers exist in their fruit, but also in their leaves and stems.
In the pepper world, a common measure of heat is the Scoville Heat Scale. The amount of capsaicin (the oil that causes the fire in our mouths) is measured in Scoville Heat Units (SHU). <5,000 = mild | 2,500-50,000 = medium | >50,000 = hot (Levels keep going for especially hot peppers like the infamous ghost pepper which receives around a 1,000,000 SHU rating.)
