Padron - Hot Pepper Seeds
🚚 FREE SHIPPING for all orders over $79!
Padron peppers are the Spanish tapas classic—pick 2–3" fruits green, blister in olive oil, and hit with salt. Most are mild, but every dozen or so hides a kicker, making eating them a friendly gamble.
Plants are prolific and early. Vitamin C and antioxidants load each bite. Let a few ripen red for a sweet-heat powder. Use the fruits fresh, roasted, pickled, stuffed, dried, or ground, depending on their sweetness and heat.
Every order is packed with care by our small team in Pennsylvania and typically ships within 2–3 business days—often by the next business day. We ship throughout the United States using USPS and UPS.
Unopened items may be returned within 30 days of delivery. If an order arrives damaged, incomplete, or incorrect, please contact us so we can make it right.
We stand behind every packet we sell. Our seeds are carefully selected, tested for germination, untreated, and guaranteed to be true to variety.
Your seeds are covered for one year from the date of purchase. If they fail to germinate under reasonable growing conditions, arrive damaged, or do not grow true to type, contact us and we’ll make it right with a replacement, store credit, or refund.
Start seed indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost. A heat mat helps to speed up the germination process. Optimum soil temperature for seed germination is 65-85 degrees. Peppers generally have long growing seasons and grow slowly during cool temperatures. Delay transplanting until your soil has thoroughly warmed up in the spring. A week before transplanting time, harden off plants by exposing them to an increasing number of hours outdoors each day. Peppers are less cold tolerant than tomatoes.
