[CH] Trouble with Habs

Last year I started a Red Savina Habanero, great plant, large and lot's of
foliage with one exception, NO fruit set.
Out of all my plants, he red Hab did nothing but grow and now it's a very
productive bush, very woody.
It's very healthy (as far as I can tell), deep green with only a few brown
tipped leaves and about 4ft tall.
The heat here in Arizona may be the contributing factor to the blossom drop
but I am not sure. My orange Hab yielded a decent crop and was two plants
down from the red.
As of today (3-3-99) there are several hundred buds/flowers on the plant and
I pray to the God of peppers that some of them set.
Just curious if anyone else may have had the same problems with the Habs. I
don't think it's isolated to the Red Savina but since it's my first time
growing it I just don't know.
Any help?
