Casa Verde Note: A must-grow for those who cannot take heat but love peppers, or if you're just looking to add more of a jalapeno dynamic with less heat. Need to make some heatless jalapeno poppers; cater to all with this one. Produces well; the pods can be on the smaller side. This pepper is classified as sweet due to the non-existence of heat, but it is by no means sweet.
