Grow Vibrant Heat with Hot Hungarian Wax Pepper Seeds
Spice up your garden and kitchen with Hot Hungarian Wax Pepper Seeds, a fiery heirloom variety that delivers big flavor and bold color. These robust plants produce 5" long, banana-shaped peppers that transition from pale yellow to golden orange and finally a striking cherry red. Perfect for short growing seasons, they thrive even in cooler weather, making them a must-have for any pepper enthusiast.
Why Choose Hot Hungarian Wax Pepper Seeds?
Originating in Hungary in 1941, these open-pollinated, heirloom seeds yield peppers with a Scoville heat rating of 5,000-10,000. Ideal for those who love a kick. Harvest early for milder heat (green-yellow) or wait for full maturity (red) for an intense spice. Their waxy texture and vibrant colors make them perfect for pickling, creating a stunning hot-pepper medley that elevates sandwiches and dishes year-round.
Easy to Grow & Highly Productive
Start your Hot Hungarian Wax Pepper Seeds indoors 8 weeks before the last frost. Plant in sterile soil, cover lightly, and keep moist with 85°F bottom heat. Germination takes 7-21 days. Transplant seedlings into rich soil or 5-gallon containers, spacing them 30" apart. In just 68 days, you’ll enjoy a bountiful harvest of peppers in varying heat levels-all from GMO-free seeds.

Again, we were so impressed with Sandia Seeds. We had great germination rates and grew these plants in our community garden. They were strong, resilient and prolific growers. Highly recommend. Next time we will get mild ones though, since there was such a large demand.
Beautiful and hot. Very productive. Great seeds, almost every one sprouted so we had plants to share at our community garden. Thanks!
Really good sauteed and on anything,
even grilled cheese for breakfast.
Good w mushrooms too.
Made a rice, pepper and mushroom
breakfast muffin, so yum !
These Hungarian Wax peppers were big and colorful on my potted plant, they really put on a nice show! I sliced and make them into pickled peppers, nice and crunchy. I used your Simple Pickled Banana Peppers Recipe - they turned out great, nice and crunchy – they are delicious on sandwiches and salads.
Great seeds, healthy plants, very productive. We made them into spicy pickled peppers.
