Hungarian Hot Wax produces long conical shaped pods with pointed ends that reach 13cm long by 3cm wide. They mature from green through to pale yellow and finely ripen to red but are generally eaten from the yellow stage. They get hotter as they age and have a rating of between 2,500-8,000 on the Scoville Scale so are of mild-medium heat.

Hungarian Hot Wax is a Capsicum annuum which is a species of the plant genus Capsicum native to southern North America, the Caribbean, and northern South America. This species is the most common and extensively cultivated of the five domesticated capsicums. The species encompasses a wide variety of shapes and sizes of peppers, both mild and hot, such as bell peppers, jalapeños, and cayenne peppers. Capsicum annuum is an evergreen Perennial growing to 1m by 1m at a medium rate. It is hardy to UK zone 9 and is frost tender. It is in leaf all year, in flower from July to September, and the seeds ripen from August to October. The species is hermaphrodite (which has both male and female organs).

Hungarian 'Hot Wax' reaches a height of 1m but is one of the easiest & quickest chilli plants to grow & produce pods in the UK climate and that earned it an AGM award from the RHS. The fruits are great stuffed with cheese & herbs and then cooked in a little olive oil in the oven or are lovely raw sliced thinly into a salad.
