kengr tipped me to the Habanada, a descendant of Habañero without the heat.

Oh wow, those look delicious!
They have a short enough growing season that they'd actually work here, too. Drool.

Well...

Keep an eye out for them, and maybe you can grow them some time. :D

I love the options- but it is now hard to find a plant that produces HOT jalapenos! Every last one is described as being milder than the next. Argh!

Well...

They vary. It's frustrating when people change the characteristics of a plant without renaming it. One time we got jalapenos for stuffing, expecting them to be toward the mild end of the scale. I wound up with chemical burns on my hands. >_
