Goldie Ground Cherry, Heirloom, Organic

Sweet, tropical-tasting gold berries wrapped in paper husks add magic to your garden.

Bushy plants grow 2.5-3' tall. When ripe, the husk around the fruit becomes papery dry and the fruit falls off the plant to be picked up from the ground. Some people place a tarp underneath the plants to make harvesting easier, but either way the husks keep the fruit clean.
