yea i thought that pepper plants came from the drier desert parts of south america also,but it apears i was wrong.they tend to grow them there a lot because the lack of water produces very hot and spicey peppers but they originated in the tropics.anyway,this little guy has already begun producing purple fruit before i introduced him into the vivarium so ill keep you updated.hey listen,i was at the store the other day and they had a tropical cactus,i think it was called christmas cactus.they say it comes from the rainforest and grows it trees like orchids.it has amazing flowers and id love to add it as well but never heard of anyone using it in vivariums.what do you guys think? it has no spines and looks like a harmless succulent thats habbits suggest it would do great and look amazing.anyone try this or any other jungle succulents.?
