Black Hungarian Pepper Seeds
Add a touch of gothic beauty to your garden with the Black Hungarian Pepper. This stunning heirloom variety is as much a visual masterpiece as it is a culinary delight. The plant itself is gorgeous, featuring purple-veined leaves and delicate lavender flowers. It produces an abundance of jalapeño-shaped peppers that emerge a glossy, deep purple-black and ripen to a dramatic dark red.

It has a rich, slightly sweet flavor that shines when roasted or added fresh to salsas, providing not only a gentle kick but also a spectacular pop of color. Whether you're a gardener looking for a unique ornamental or a chef seeking a pepper with visual flair, the Black Hungarian is an exceptional choice.
