Is this a chilli plant or am I nurturing weeds. I planted chillies last year but thought they died. Then I find this..

Oh, Cathy, that's not a chili plant. It's a weed, also common in my own yard. I think it might be called "willowherb." Great photo though. Someone else will be able to make a positive ID from it.

You also seem to be nurturing moss, which might indicate a more general problem with your growing conditions than a dead chilli.

Well, it sure looks healthy and happy - but I’m afraid that is not a chili plant. If I had to do an id (which I hesitate a bit, the photo is is a tad blurry), I’d say a willowherb (Epilobium sp.). While also used for medicinal purposes, most gardeners will probably classify them as weeds1, especially as they are so resilient and happy to pioneer any unoccupied space, even if it’s just a spare flower pot.
