Consistently impressed; loved by all I share them with.

This is the second year I have grown this pepper. I grow other large jalapenos as well, but this one is impressively large. Great flavor and prolific. They make great poppers. They freeze well too. The friends that I share with are overjoyed to get them and ask if I'm going to grow them again next year.
