- Hi, I bought 3 small chilli plants recently, unfortunately 2 died, & I am trying to keep the 3rd surviving plant alive, but it is wilting. I have it in a small pot on a north facing verandah, but I was wondering if it may be too cold for it - it is now May, and I live on the south-west coast of Victoria & prone to frosts. I was wondering what I can do to keep the plant alive. I have noticed a couple of small white flowers on the plant, but the plant itself is very small & wilting -?too much water. I am a beginner gardener, & would be really encouraged if I could manage to keep this plant alive & able to produce chili's which I love. thanking you, Helen
