Hi Peter,
         My, Zimbabwe Bird Chile is a potted specimen approximately 2
years old. Its in a pot 12 inches wide by 15 inches tall, the size of
the bush is about 200mm tall with a spread of 220mm. The fruit size is
11mm by 4mm. Last year some of the fruit were smaller (like grains of
wheat). I foliar feed with epsom salts and fertilise with Dynamic Lifter
(a pellitised Chicken manure). It gets a little pruning from time to
time to tidy the dead bits up. It probably suffered a bit last year from
El Nina conditions. One of the reasons I have kept it in a pot is its
small size so it gives me great heart to know that it will grow to 4
feet.
