Padrón peppers are a staple in Spanish cuisine, often served as a classic tapas dish. Traditionally, they are quickly blistered in olive oil and sprinkled with sea salt, making for an irresistible appetizer. Their mild, slightly sweet flavour pairs well with meats, seafood, and salads. While most peppers remain mild, an occasional one carries a surprising spicy kick, adding a fun and flavourful twist to any dish.

Growing Conditions

Padrón peppers thrive in warm, sunny conditions and well-drained soil. Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost, then transplant them outdoors when temperatures remain consistently above 60°F (16°C). Water regularly, but avoid overwatering, as peppers prefer slightly dry conditions between watering. With proper care, these plants will produce an abundant harvest of delicious, small peppers throughout the growing season.

    All plants are grown on our farm in Norfolk, UK and are grown in an open pollinated area.
