Cubanelle
The Cubanelle is a classic heirloom Capsicum annuum pepper that originated in the Caribbean and has become a favorite in Cuban, Puerto Rican, Dominican, and Italian cuisine. Known for its mild flavor and exceptional versatility, Cubanelle produces long, tapered pods that ripen from pale green to a rich orange-red if left on the plant. With a gentle heat ranging from 0–1,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU), it offers little to no spice, making it an excellent choice for those who enjoy sweet pepper flavor without significant heat.
Cubanelle peppers have thin walls, a crisp texture, and a slightly sweet, earthy flavor that becomes richer as the fruit matures. They are perfect for frying, roasting, grilling, stuffing, fajitas, sandwiches, salads, and fresh salsa, making them one of the most versatile peppers you can grow. Their mild flavor also makes them an excellent substitute for bell peppers in many recipes while offering a more delicate taste.
The plants are vigorous, easy to grow, and highly productive, producing an abundance of long, attractive peppers throughout the growing season. Their dependable yields, outstanding culinary versatility, and mild flavor make Cubanelle an excellent choice for gardeners of all experience levels, from backyard growers to market farmers.
Each pack includes 10–20 premium seeds.
