Bananapeno
A C. annuum cross between a banana pepper and jalapeño. Combines the mild sweetness of the banana pepper form with some jalapeño heat. Medium-green to yellow pods tapering to red; moderate heat at 2,500–8,000 SHU. A novelty hybrid with thicker walls than banana peppers, suited for stuffing and pickling. Not widely standardized — heat can vary between seed strains.
