overwintering Overwinter in our mild climate.

[Linyera]

We have very mild winters here where we live. A kind of micro climate with almost no frost. The chilli plants, we have outside only, were cut of at a foot above ground at the end of June and they all started making new shoots during the winter. Now that spring is hete they are really picking up speed. Some faster than others.
Will keep you posted. New seeds up and growing

Here in Western North Carolina it freezes the soil in Jan & Feb deep & kills off any peppers or tomatoes.
I have 1, 2 & 3 year olds spending their winter in the dirt floor damp basement looking like green sticks.
