Sweet Banana Pepper (70 days)

Bright yellow fruits are sweet, crunchy and about 4-6" long.  Many folks eat them right out of the garden, but they are delicious pickled as well.  Gets sweeter as they ripen. 

Makes a nice pickling pepper.  Many folks use them pickled on sandwiches and in salads.  Others make sweet pepper jam or relish.  I've been know to put them on pizza!

This is a great pepper for short season climates because it produces so quickly.   Remember to get an early start by planting in the greenhouse first and setting them out in the garden when the weather is warm.
