The red coloration on the leaves is common, but not always present. It looks like a formerly pot bound SDC to me. If you've been feeding it with synthetic fertilizers, you may want to stop and flush out the soil with clean water. It can build up salts in the soil and cause stunting and will likely not fruit.
For the best chance of fruiting, I think you should pot it up into a big container with up to about 50% high quality compost in the media, then maybe something like 25% peat or coir and 25% perlite, and maybe mix in a little slow release fertilizer if you wish, but it is not really required. Then only water it, do not add any fertilizer. This way the plant will have basically everything it needs nutrition-wise, and won't be set back by accidental over-fertilization which this cultivar seems particularly sensitive to.
