Hungarian Yellow Wax Chilli Plant in 4" pot

Hungarian Yellow Wax

Heat: Medium (5,000–10,000 SHU)

80 Days. A versatile Hungarian heirloom Capsicum annuum producing long, tapered pods that ripen from pale yellow through orange to red. Crisp, tangy, and mildly hot when picked young, the flavour deepens and heat builds considerably as the pods mature to red. One of the most reliable dual-purpose chillies available — excellent for pickling at the yellow stage, and equally good fried, stuffed, or used fresh in salsas and salads.

Vigorous, high-yielding plants perform well in full sun with fertile, well-drained soil. A long-time garden favourite valued for its colour, productivity, and versatile mild heat.

Harvest: Pick yellow for pickling and mild heat, or allow to ripen red for fuller flavour and spice.
Flavour: Tangy, crisp, and mildly spicy with heat that builds as pods ripen.
