poinsettia peppers

[Capsicum]

Anyone grow this variety? I just got some seed of it and want to give it a go. The question is how big do they get? What size container would be good for it's final container?

They are great! Heavy producers, beautiful looking plant, and a very nice flavor and heat.

yes i grew it two years in a row, beautiful plant with upright growing fruit, good flavor quite mild compared to other cayennes, great for stir fry, powder and flake, the perfect replacement in Thai cooking for those who like it mild but flavorful

small plant gets about 13 inches tall 1 plant would be fine in a 10 to 12 inch pot lager pot for more, support with a stake when there fruiting they tend to over-burden themselves because are prolific, originated in Japan
