I had the same problem here in NZ last year. From the answers I received the message was "don't panic" Most peppers will set fruit when they are ready. Mine dropped heaps of flowers early, then followed with a bumper crop. Even the leftover plants I planted in odd corners all produced some fruit, no matter how neglected and stunted. Peppers seem really determined to produce seed. On a personal note thanks to everyone for the kind and thoughtful messages received after my sad loss. Tony Flynn
