I thin k I shall try and overwinter my plants as they take a long time to crop from seed.

    Yes, chilies too can be kept going for ages.
    Vendée - 20kms from Atlantic coast.

    Bob does it and has an impressive collection.
    I've never had any success overwintering chillies, have given up trying 😞. I start my seeds early in a heated prop Jan/Feb to get a head start on our shorter season up North.

    Runner beans too although they aren't hardy enough to survive most UK Winters. Also known as 7 year beans in the US.
