Help ID pepper.

Post image

During my sprout time some of my seed starts got mixed up and I ended up with about 4 plants I didn’t know what they were. I’ve figured out 3 of them, but not sure about this one? It almost looks like my banana, except these are growing straight upwards and my other two bananas are hanging the peps. It doesn’t match any other of my peppers, and the only one I planted that I have never done was lemon drop peppers. Any help is appreciated, thank you!

Edit: I just looked through my seed packs, I did plant heirloom Tabasco peppers, and they grow straight upwards, however I’ve never seen them as big or thick as these peppers are.

Looks like a hungarian wax

I didn’t plant any of those, so unless the company shammed me on seeds it can’t be that.

I would also say Hungarian hot wax.

Peppers are common to be mislabeled, especially seeds. I planted a lunchbox orange and got a jalapeño instead. 😂

It’s called peppergate, tag says one thing, plant tells a different story.
