Capsicums and chillies

I planted a few varieties of capsicums and chillies in pots a few years ago and most of them are still with me, returning every spring to flower and fruit.  The red capsicum could wait a few more days to ripen fully but I have a dish in mind to cook.  The pale green banana capsicum is sweet and good in stir-fires.  The Scotch bonnet orange chillies was a Christmas present from a fellow gardener.  I have yet to test its hotness.  It has a reputation of being on the top end of the heat scale.  I cannot live without my chillies and would keep adding new plants to my collection.
