Histoire et culture

Banana peppers descend from Hungarian wax varieties cultivated across Hungary, Serbia, and Romania. Immigrants carried seeds to North America in the late 19th century, where commercial growers adopted them for pickling. By the mid-20th century, the pepper became common in American deli sandwiches and pizza toppings. Today, banana peppers grow worldwide, often marketed as sweet pepperoncini or yellow wax, though true pepperoncini differ slightly.

Botanique et notes de culture

These peppers are easy to grow and productive. Start seeds indoors 6 weeks before the last frost. Transplant when soil warms above 15°C. Plants reach about 60 cm tall and produce dozens of pods. Provide full sun, fertile soil, and regular moisture. Harvest when peppers reach full size but remain yellow for crisp texture, or allow full ripening to orange-red for more sweetness. Frequent picking encourages new flowers.
