    I have a jalepeno that miraculously managed to survive the winter after being planted in a terribly harsh, dry spot last year. It is about the size of those plants, and currently has two chiles on it!

        I suspect it is putting all of it’s life energy into these chillies before it dies. I did give it some fertilizer & extra water, but it is in a brutally exposed spot, in full sun right next to the footpath. I only planted it because it was an extra seedling and I figured I’d give it a chance - I guess it’s taking it’s chance and doing everything it can with it.
