IMHO jalapenos are OK.. but really find their best use as chipotles. I
grow them just so I can get red jalapenos. My favorite chiles (in taste)
are (in no particular order):
serranos, Habaeros (Red S are the best for taste not just heat),
chiltepin, piquin and deArbol. I prefer all my chilies at the ripe
stage.. tho my favorite green chiles are serranos and ancho (called
pablanos in CA, and are perfect for chile rellenos). In fact the ONLY
chile I've tasted that I really disliked was some anchos i grew and let
ripen .. the sweetness in them just didn't work for me.

Howlin' for Habaneros
