Sweet Banana Pepper - Heirloom 20 seeds

Capsicum annuum. Small bushy plants. Dark green ovate leaves. Chilli need warm frost free weather, so protect with glass or plastic covers if planting outside in cooler areas. Most varieties need a long growing period to produce many ‘chillies’.

Banana peppers are native to South America. They come in several different varieties ranging from mild and sweet to hot and pungent. The peppers are about four to six inches long and they resemble a banana in shape and are pale yelow-green to yellow in color becoming bright red when mature.

This sweet mild pepper, like all peppers sweet or hot, has a high vitamin content in a high-fiber, low-calorie package. Banana peppers are especially high in vitamin C, vitamin B6, and folate.
