overwintering Grenada Hot Overwinters

I can't say enough about this Chinense variety.  They are very similar to Caribbean Reds (same heat) but are a little bigger and with more ribbing.  But, they are robust.
 
I had two Grenada Hots that were 6 years old and one died this year with the coldest winter here I remember.
 
However, these "babies" were in the pot after I pulled the dead Mother.
 
Today I split them up.  They've been over-wintering since last season.
 
If you have a chance to grow these some day, you'll not regret.
