Black Hungarian Wax Organic Heirloom Hot Peppers are plants that grow 30 to 36 with green foliage, purple veins, and beautiful purple flowers. The 2 to 3 fruits resemble large jalapenos with a pointed end. Black Peppers eventually turn red and are mildly hot with good flavor. The “wax” in the name is a reference to the slightly waxy texture of the rind of the pepper. Despite the texture, the rind is perfectly edible and, in fact, very flavorful. Peppers demand warm soil and warm temperatures, but before planting them, if possible, start seeds indoors. Choose a sunny location with at least eight hours of sun each day that provides good drainage. Plant peppers outside three weeks after the last frost. Soil temperature should be 60 degrees or above.
