This year I'm going to dig up a couple hot pepper plants, trim them back drastically and try to make them into bonsai. First I'll transplant to small pot, then after a couple weeks when plant starts putting out new growth put in shallow bonsai pot. I've seen pictures that look cute and I've been growing Desert Rose seedlings in bonsai pots. Some people say in the spring they plant the peppers back outdoors and get another year from them. It's my winter experiment.
