    I think you are right about the pepper, the middle pic has the big floppy leaves that I remember from growing bell peppers. I think you will have to wait for flowers and fruit before you can be certain though - they might be chilli peppers! (seriously I think chillis are on smaller plants)

    Yes, it's a weird one. We got our seeds mixed up somehow and they were suppose to be red bell pepper. But these are approx' 3-4 foot high and peppers don't usually grow that height. :confused:
