HI, I'm growing Cayenne Chillies and was wondering how big could I
expect it to grow? I've seen photos and mine are nowhere near that big;
is this bad? Or is it just because I'm in the UK?!

In a hot summer they grow to about two feet high outdoors. They will
grow much higher in a greenhouse or in a very hot summer.


Outside mine are about sixteen inches high but those in the conservatory
are three feet high. Of course that is probably because there is less
light in the conservatory as well as there being more heat.
