Hi Blue Belle...I don't know how I missed this post earlier. I grow the annual Ornamental Peppers for late fall color and it had never occurred to me to try them indoors. Now that you have mentioned it, I think I'll give it a shot. Here is a link to some information about growing indoors:

Here are a couple of my baby plants...

Blue Belle, I had an ornamental pepper plant given to me last September, and it lived in my kitchen until about mid-february, when it suddenly becane infested with some tiny mites, succumbing very quickly. I suspect that it might have been a combination of not enough light, and maybe just a tad too much water! But really, I had no idea at the time what the poor thing needed, and life was too hectic to even look it up on the net--I was just counting my lucky stars that it lived as long as it did.

I will be trying another one this year, armed with more info. this time! I saw some at my local Zehr's too, some red, some orange, and some purplish ones....
