                Who knows :noidea:...I like surprises, so I will be patient.
                I am actually growing some Chinese Lanterns for next year....if I don't kill them off this winter that is, so far they don't resemble them.

                        Definitely doesn't look like Chinese lanterns to me. We have a 24ft long bed of them and most of them have already grown and ripened in the hot dry weather we have had (Mrs Shiney uses them in flower arranging).

                        Peppers look more likely but I'd be careful about trying them, if they are chillies, and when they're ripe, as some of that shape can be mild and sweet whereas other can be HOT! It's still a wait and see game. :)

                          Odds are on Peppers I think, as I said I did experiment with chucking some seeds from a shop bought red pepper on to a tray of compost earlier in the year. Whatever they are they are slow growing!!!
