Sweet Hungarian Wax Pepper Seeds – A Delicate, Sweet Treat for Your Garden

Grow your own Sweet Hungarian Wax Pepper Seeds and enjoy a delightful, mild-flavored pepper perfect for short-season climates. These heirloom peppers are lighter and more delicate than bell peppers, offering a subtle, sweet taste that intensifies as they ripen. Whether you pick them early in their light-yellow stage or wait for them to turn vibrant orange or red, these thin-walled beauties are a versatile addition to your kitchen.

Sweet Hungarian peppers are a specific and highly prized type of paprika, known for its vibrant red color, mild flavor, fruity notes, and lack of heat, making it a staple in Hungarian cuisine for dishes like goulash and chicken paprikash

Why Choose Sweet Hungarian Wax Peppers?

These open-pollinated peppers mature in just 76 days, producing 4-5" long, 1-1/2" wide fruits with a sweet, mild flavor. Perfect for pickling, salads, sandwiches, and even pizza, they add a burst of color and taste to any dish. The compact 30" tall plants are easy to grow, making them ideal for both garden beds and large containers. 

Growing Tips for Success

Start your Sweet Hungarian Wax Pepper Seeds indoors 8 weeks before the last frost. Plant them in sterile media, cover lightly, and keep them warm (85°F) and moist under bright light. Germination takes 7-21 days. Once seedlings develop 6 true leaves, transplant them 30" apart in rich soil or 5-gallon containers. Harvest at any stage—green, orange, or red—for a range of sweet flavors.
