Ancho / Poblano Pepper
Growing Information and Photos
The ancho pepper and the poblano pepper are the same thing. When the pepper is green and growing, it is called a poblano. When it is dried and concentrated, it is called an ancho. A poblano is fairly mild, but it gets more spicy when it is dried out and in the ancho state.
We didn't think these were going to grow at all - the shoots were very short for quite a long while. Finally we repotted them into larger pots just to see what happened and POOF they were huge overnight. They made tons of flowers, and proceeded to make tons of peppers. This was taken on October 26th so they're fairly hardy.
