Despite their exotic associations, these fiery peppers are remarkably easy to grow.
There's an ever-increasing range of varieties available but they all have similar growing requirements (both to each other and to tomatoes).
The plants need a sunny site and high temperatures to produce the best crops, so are best kept in a greenhouse or conservatory - although they can be moved outside in summer.
