we grew this ornamental pepper on our deck last year, then I cut it back and brought it inside just to see if it would still grow peppers this year, it looks healthy as can be for a two year old pepper plant.

Nice.........are the peppers any good????
there kinda hot, but too small to mess with, I have one habenero plant growing that should give me enuf heat for the winter.
I got some habeneros in the freezer...I put 1/4 of one in the chili for my hub one day because he loves hot stuff but it was so darn hot..ugh....he couldn't eat it..lol...I wasn't even gonna try.....lol
BE CAREFUL WITH THE HABENEROS! I could tell ya some stories...it's funny now, but not so funny back then. once I cut them I don't touch the peppers or the knife.
lol.......well come on start talking....I think I got a similar story...

I had a similar experience Monday night. I'd chopped some chilies for lunch and washed my hands several times. My eye started itching that evening at work so I rubbed by eye without thinking about it. I had to flush my eye with eye drops for several minutes. They were good though. Sauteed them with an onion and some portabellas cut into strips, then added a little soy sauce and sesame oil. My wife said they were too hot, but I liked them.

a kid in my class back at high school made $50 on bets when he eat a habenero in one bite, he said he had the worst crap of his life the next day, haha.

I got imaptient last year draining stuff for the fire relish (several types of peppers) and started pushing it through the sieve with my hands...big huge ugly mistake! I spent the night with my hands soaking in tupperware bowls full of milk....and then all the skin still peeled off!
