Ashwagandha flowers

Ok, this is not a Capsicum, it's a Withania somnifera but I am happy to see that my ashwagandha is flowering!


Ashwagandha is also known as Indian ginseng, and its roots are commonly used in ayurveda.


Tonight, the weather forecast again predicts temperature below 10C. I believe that the plants out on the balcony are going to get cold feet...
