Sweet Pepper plant

I bought this plant about 3 months ago from B&Q The name is "Sweet Pepper Bannana"

I have 2 perfectly formed peppers growing well although a bit green at the moment. Trouble is there is absolutely no sign of any more coming. At this time of the year, am I unlikely to get any more and will the plant come again next year or will I have to bin it.

  • If it's the same pepper plant that I got from B & Q a couple of years ago then mine was covered in red peppers but an unexpected early frost killed it off. Maybe if you kept it indoors over winter it would survive? Unfortunately I can't remember the name of the one I got but it obviously wasn't winter hardy.

    You can get chilli peppers to survive the winter if you are lucky, I would assume that sweet peppers are the same. Watch out for pests and you don't need to water much.
    Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.
