The Cascadura Poblano Sweet Pepper is a unique, mild variety combining the deeply lobed, pumpkin-like shape of Cascadura types with the broader, slightly elongated form of a poblano. Fruits are thick-walled, glossy, and ripen from green to rich red. The texture is firm and juicy, making it excellent for stuffing, roasting, grilling, or fresh slicing.

Flavor is rich and slightly earthy like a poblano, balanced with a gentle sweetness and no bitterness. It holds up well to cooking and develops a deeper, almost smoky sweetness when roasted.

Scoville Heat Units (SHU): 0 – 500 SHU (very mild to no heat)

This makes it ideal for those who enjoy poblano-style flavor without the spice.
