    Hi rpdiy,

    What size is the plant?
    What size pot?
    Are you feeding it?

    A picture would be helpful. :thumb:

    Scotch bonnet can be slow developers.

    Indoors they do well, a window sill for example.

    Out doors is hit and miss.

    If out doors they need lots of sun but also need shelter from cold winds.

    Indoors they do well but pollination is an issue and they can attract gnats and blackfly.

    :)
