Jill,

The one in the 1st picture is growing in one of those heavy, clay W-boxes--along with Impatiens, marigolds and this and that on the East side of my house--on the :kitchen porch. Never use that door! Fill AM sun until 2-3PM.
The Pepper is, probably, 6" or so tall.....

There are 3 of these W-Boxes--2 on the top landing and one on the bottom--on top of 2 blocks.
That is where the Pepper is--you can see it...
***Please ignore the trash can! I took another pic of all this w/o it. still in camera....
Will do so on August Flowers Post.....Soon....

The other Pepper is growing in a big, white plastic pot--the ones that sit on a pedestal. Not the best soil in that--as it started out with a Geranium in it that I carried over dormant in my basement--and I did not change the soil....
The stems on that Pepper are a lot longer.....as you can see in Pic. #2.

Holly--I didn't know the Fountain Grass made seeds!!! I guess it must.....I will pull off some of the "heads" later...
You know--it IS an annual! Makes a humongous root system!
