Sequoia offers growers a larger ancho poblano type and an earlier maturity than others in this class. Tall upright plants produce good yields of large, dark green fruit that measure 6-3/4" long x 2-3/4" wide at the crown. Sequoia has a classic ancho shape and is mainly 2 lobed with an occasional 3 lobed fruit being produced. The fruit have a mild to hot pungency, are uniform for size and shape, and ripen to deep red late.
