- Great Pepper Plant, That Comes Back Year After Year. Review by Chile Head Ed
-
Planted one of these tough little pepper plants in a 15-in. clay pot at my parents Florida home. The first season, the plant set so many large peppers so fast, the wind and rain cracked the stem nearly in half. Some first-aid with masking tape and pop-sicle sticks let the plant continue to produce numerous hot peppers until the cold killed it. Only, it didn't die. As soon as it warms back up, and we get a little rain, it's ready to go again, year after year. That very same plant, has been going strong for the last 4 years now, and my parents enjoy it, and the peppers every year. I highly recommend this guy to any medium to hot pepper fans, especially those in warmer climates. (Posted on 4/25/12)Taste Yield
