It gets its name from "annual ", which implies that a plant only has one season from seed and then dies. This is, in fact, not the case. If not subjected to very cold conditions, these plants can survive for many seasons and turn into large perennial bushes.

When the seeds start to wriggle in the hot oil, add the onion and saute, stirring, for about eight minutes, until soft and starting to brown. You can scrape the chilli seeds out which helps in making the dish a little milder and stops you biting down on the seeds.

After this time, I have found that there is a risk the flavour will degrade, which will render your chillies pretty much useless as their purpose is to add flavour.McQuaid J (20 February 2015).
