Today, we picked the last handful of sweet banana peppers from the garden. I decided to plant a variety of yellow sweet banana peppers to add some color to the Veggie-Bed this year. To our surprise, one of the four plants turned out to be hot peppers, which we didn’t realize until I had taken a bite.
I love the surprise of growing produce and discovering new flavors. There’s nothing quite like plucking a fresh banana pepper straight from the plant and savoring its juicy sweetness. Have you ever experienced the unexpected heat of what you thought was a mild and sweet pepper? It’s all part of the joy of gardening, even if it means unexpectedly biting into a hot pepper!
