Peppers

Pepper Jalapeno Early is an heirloom pepper plant native to North America, South America, and the Caribbean. This variety performs better in cooler climates, producing hot, skinny fruits 2.5-3" long, with a bold, spicy flavor and Scoville rating of 2,500-5,000. Jalapenos are the hottest harvested as they begin to turn red and become slightly sweeter fully ripened to red. This classic pepper is a staple in Mexican dishes and obvious addition to the kitchen garden. Upright plants flourish in full sun in the vegetable garden or large containers with regular water and warm weather. For a mild pepper, grow Cubanelle. 

Pepper Banana Wax is a popular heirloom variety prized for its mild heat and prolific yields. Originally from Hungary, these peppers are famous for their elongated, smooth shape and vibrant color transition from pale yellow to orange and eventually bright red. Known for a sweet, tangy crunch, they are a favorite for pickling, frying, or slicing fresh onto sandwiches. The plants are sturdy and high-yielding, making them a reliable choice for gardeners of all skill levels. For a hotter yellow pepper, consider the Hungarian Wax.
