Growing Information

Growing Trident Hybrid Pepper

Trident Hybrid Pepper is an improved ancho or poblano type that outperforms traditional Mosquetero-style peppers with larger fruit size, stronger plants, and better adaptability. This vigorous hybrid produces smooth, glossy, dark green peppers that feature the classic two-lobed shape that tapers to a gentle point. Trident thrives in a wide range of climates — even under cooler growing conditions — and offers outstanding productivity on tomato mosaic virus–resistant plants. The fruits have a medium heat level, making them perfect for stuffing, roasting, or frying, especially in traditional chiles rellenos. With its combination of disease resistance, adaptability, and premium flavor, Trident sets a new standard for reliable poblano performance.

A high-performing hybrid poblano that delivers bigger, smoother, and more uniform peppers — perfect for gardeners and market growers alike.

    Trident is the best poblano, by far!

    After experimenting with several other varieties of Poblanos I have come to realize that nothing beats Trident. The size and flavor are the best.

    Good Poblano

    I had only tried pablanos once before with little success cess. These lived up to their hype, large, great peppers. I did find that trying to match a restaurant's chilli rellenos is a lot of work, but if you're up for it, it's worth it with these.
