Cubanelle Pepper

Cubanelle peppers are slender, light green fruits with a mild, slightly sweet flavor. Often called Italian frying peppers, they’re perfect for sautéing, stuffing, or enjoying fresh. With a gentle heat level of 0–1,000 Scoville Heat Units, they’re much milder than jalapeños and ideal for those who prefer just a hint of warmth. For healthy plants and steady production, prune regularly to encourage airflow and strong growth. Companion planting with flowers like zinnias and cosmos can also help deter common garden pests while adding beauty to your space.
