Notes
'Jalapeno M' pepper (Capsicum annuum 'Jalapeno M') is a vegetable for food gardens, containers, and borders. It is typically grown as an annual. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. This pepper is open-pollinated and matures in 70 days.
Pairs well with Celebrity Plus tomato, Thai basil, and Butternut squash.
