Turn up the heat with our classic Serrano Pepper seeds. A staple in Mexican cuisine, the Serrano is beloved for its crisp, clean, and spicy flavor that is a noticeable step up in heat from a jalapeño. The highly productive plants become absolutely loaded with slender, 3-4 inch, bullet-shaped peppers that ripen from a glossy green to red. They have a bright, biting heat that is perfect for dicing into fresh pico de gallo, salsas, or any dish that needs a spicy kick.
