I should post pictures of their ripe appearance next to each...note to Craig, do so when you get some time. I can only imagine what these plants would do in a larger container! You can also sneak them into flower beds.....Which is what we do, interplanting them with petunias, impatiens, etc.

Pretty much all of them dry well - at the end of the season, we froze a few bags of them (all mixed together, all colors, for use...now!) - but also let trays of ripe, red fruit dry, then I got out the food processor and made red pepper flakes from them, which we also have a few bags of sitting around.
