I bring 3 to 5 pepper plants every winter in the house to 
over winter. Works quite well. My Tabasco Plant in the 
garden this year is 3 years old and 7' tall this year. He 
won't be coming back in. (I've since learned to prune prune 
prune)

3 Habanero plants are bucketed right now and in the garage 
for the night before they are brought in the house.

I had some Red Savina Habaneros years ago go 3 to 4 years. 
The best years are definitely 2nd and 3rd.
