Hungarian Hot Wax

2,500 - 8,000 SHU

The Hungarian Wax Pepper is easily confused with the similar-looking banana pepper, but it is much hotter. It is also known as the Hungarian Hot Wax Pepper.

The Hungarian Wax is harvested before complete maturity, while it is still yellow, and about 8 inches long and 2 inches thick. If left to mature fully, these peppers could grow larger and would turn red, and their heat level would increase considerably.

These are another absolute favourite of mine, very much like to Jalapeño I love to lightly grill these on the BBQ and then stuff them with all sorts of different fillings.

The plants are so easy to grow and have never let me down, but bear in mind you will want to get these potted on into the largest containers you have as they really need a lot of space if you are not planting into the ground
