Banana Sweet Pepper – Capsicum Annuum – 10 Seeds

The banana pepper (also known as the yellow wax pepper or banana chilli) is a member of the chilli pepper family. It is often pickled and used as an ingredient in sandwiches. It is a variety of the species Capsicum Annuum. Its shape and colour resembles a banana. Its flavour is mild to moderately hot (0500 Scoville units), and as is the case with most peppers, its hotness depends on the maturity of the pepper, with the most ripe being sweeter than younger ones. Banana peppers are not the same as pepperoncini (which some erroneously refer to as banana peppers).Banana peppers are typically yellow, but can also be orange or red. The plant requires full sun, and should be treated the same as most other plants in the pepper family. Plants can be grown from seed and cuttings.
