Originally brought to California from New Mexico in the early 1900s and popularized in Anaheim, these peppers are beloved for their gentle heat (usually 500–2,500 Scoville units) and versatile flavor that’s slightly sweet, earthy, and perfect for roasting, stuffing, grilling, or making homemade green chili sauce. Anaheim peppers are especially famous for Chile Rellenos and are a staple in Southwestern and Mexican-inspired cooking. The plants are productive, adaptable, and ideal for garden beds, raised beds, or large containers, thriving in full sun with well-draining soil and consistent watering. For best results, start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before your last frost, transplant after danger of frost has passed, and harvest green for milder flavor or red for added sweetness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePeppers are slow to germinate and slow to start growing to transplant size. I recommend to start seeds in pots\/trays with a heat mat to speed up germination. Then start fertilizing weekly with half strength fertilizer once the first set of true leaves appear. Peppers are similar to tomatoes in that they like plenty of water and are heavy feeders. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePeppers are perennial plants and can produce for several years if taken care of. In cold climates trim off all the leaves and bring in doors in a pot to over winter. Place back out doors once temperatures are nice and warm. In mild climates, pepper plants can be left out doors and might need to be covered on the coldest nights. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIdeal Growing Conditions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSun: \u003c\/strong\u003e8 hours of full sun.
