I am growing a "facing Heaven" pepper plant (Heaven chile, capsicum annuum var. conoides) indoors this winter for my roommate, who plans to use the peppers in his cooking. I haven't been able to find any information online about the size of this pepper plant, though. My indoor grow area is not currently set up for plants above a certain height.. does anyone know how big these plants usually get?

"Facing Heaven" Pepper Plant Size?
- Thread starter Illsstep
- Start date
I just used a 10" pot and the plant got to about 18", died over winter, haven't tried again.
I planted one in a 8" raised bed and it topped about 16-18" with roughly the same dimensions wide. Fruits were around 1/2 - 3/4" long and around 1/4" round with thin walls. Fiery too, like heat of a long hot thai pepper.
