Bell Chilli
My bell chilli loves its north facing spot against a lattice. I tied back one or two branches so it wouldn't impose on my sitting area but it seemed to prefer an almost self-espaliering leaning habit. Without pruning it reached the roof guttering. | Julia Russell - Newcastle, NSW 18-Apr-2007

I have one original bell pepper plant which is 5 year old plus several self seeded. They are all facing north west with the house wall protecting them from wind. These plants are up to the guttering & produce best when leaning against the brick work | Lesley Nicholls - Buderim, QLD 22-Jan-2016
