Lovely tree. Like the trunk. Maybe one suggestion would be to move it outdoors during the summer. To get more light. Did you get aphids ? And how thick is the trunk. I am curious

How long can a chili plant last when it is well taken care of?

how has the fruit yield differed each year?

This is one of the most impressive things I’ve seen on Reddit!
That’s awesome! I grew a big habanero this year, indoors as well, and I am hoping to keep it alive indoors. Good to see that this is very possible! Do you have any specific recommendations? I read your comment about soil and fertilizer. What about the pruning, is there a specific method?

So cool! Anytime I’ve tried to grow peppers indoors they drop all their leaves and just get nailed by aphids and thrips. It’s always after bringing them inside after being outside all season though. Never thought to try and keep one inside its entire life. Interesting, good work!

Where are the habaneros?
/s. Kind of

I had something like that with a Trinidad scorpion, sadly it died after about 7 years. It was 1 1/3” at the base and super woody.

How do you deal with aphids? Every bonsai tree I make from a pepper plant is riddled with them. I might resort to pesticides since the fruit isn’t usually worth eating anyways.
I have this giant jalapeño tree right now – I never thought of bringing it in, but it’s huge, and very happy.
Can’t hurt anything by trying! Thanks for the inspiration, this baby’s comin’ inside for winter 🌶️

How much light do they need? Wondering if I could do this at my work

Overwintered some pepper plants one year,aphids showed up. Out of nowhere Asian beetles swooped in and cleaned them up then disappeared. Live in an old farmhouse so they have plenty of places to hide.

Here’s a shot of it a while back before a much needed pruning.
this is one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen, thank you for sharing!
Awseome
Does it drop leaves in winter?
Also, I like the sound of a holiday habanero tree. Does it get decked out with lights?
That is amazing!
Also, I can’t imagine any office I ever worked in allowing this, you must have cool bosses.
What a beauty.
Beautiful ! Here’s my hab tree
