I have been told that you can keep the chilli plants from year to

You can. I haven't had any last more than about 3 or 4 years
though.
They'll probably drop their leaves but even if they don't they need
a
fair amount of light, or they'll get sickly.
Aphids and spider mites are particular pests indoors.
This seems to be a hardy perennial question. Do you and Rusty share
my experience that you get a bigger yield by growing chillies as
annuals? Or is it simply a matter of feeding them up properly after
the first year?
