Mine is hardly beautiful unless it is harvesting season. It is a very
interesting plant though with precise geometric angles to the branching.
I have watered mine every summer but this year I'm just letting nature
takes its course and see if there is a difference in the flavor.

There is a domesticated variety here at a Tucson Botanical park and I
bought one for a friend several miles away so not to cross pollinate my
perfect tasting wild one. He is a master gardener but genetics have
everything to do with flavor. His is bitter and much hotter than the wild.
