Just a quick one:
I planted some chilli seeds from some dried chillis which I got from Spain
last year...I wasn't really expecting them to grow but they did...I planted
them because the chillis we get over here are not hot enough for me and
these have a nice flavour too, even dried...anyway, I planted 15 seeds and
12 of them grew, they shot up to about six inches and stopped, round about
July, since then they have grown about 3 inches and I have repotted them in
9 inch pots, two plants in each - they haven't flowered or anything but the
stems are quite woody and sturdy, which makes me think that they may last a
few years?
Does anyone know if they will survive the winter so that I may get some
fruit from them next summer or are they doomed to the compost heap? - they
have strong foilage and roots too.
