Last Autumn when clearing out all the old tomato and chilli plants I took pitty on one little chilli plant, I had already taken out its label so have no idea of its variety.
anyway..... instead of throwing it in compost bin I had an idea- take it to work and plant it in one of the reception flower planters! this was just before Christmas. I pruned it hard back (frost had done it's worst) and to date it has grown a lovely flush of new leaves and I am now celebrating my first (2nd) set of flower buds! (first were last summer!)
As the plant is inside I may have to pollinate the flowers, but I am hopeful and excited that I may get a 2nd crop fingers crossed,
Go little pepper plant go!!!
Its fab having a 'crop' at growing at work
