Red Fresno peppers are a big crowd-pleaser, easy to grow, and they're great to eat. Developed and commercialized by Clarence Brown Hamlin in 1952, he named the pepper after the city of Fresno, California.
These compact pepper plants reach around 2 ft. tall and produce bounties of these small, conical-shaped peppers. Watch as these 2"-long

Honestly, a little disappointed.
Only about half of the seeds came up. I also ordered from 2 other suppliers and 99% of their seeds came up successfully. All the seeds got the same treatment, indoor start with heat pad underneath with a clear dome on top. They were well watered and set in a sunny window. I guess I ended up with some that weren't as good as others. Thanks for asking.
