BULK Hot Hungarian Wax Seeds ORG - 1 oz.

Big and juicy banana-shaped waxy peppers grow 5” long on 3’ tall plants. Ripens from pale yellow to deep golden orange and finally cherry red. Very productive even in cool weather. Great for short seasons. This pepper originated from Hungary in 1941 and is also known as Hot Banana Wax. For milder peppers with less heat, harvest early when pale green-yellow. As the pepper matures to red it gets hotter. These look like sweet Hungarian peppers and the only way to tell them apart is the heat! Pickle all three colors for a beautiful hot-pepper medley—a staple for winter sandwiches.Capsicum annuum. (68 days)
