I grew this bountiful #GroundCherry plant from seeds collected from last year's #VolunteerPlant. I dug a volunteer ground cherry plant out from a sidewalk crack, last year & transplanted into a pot. That plant provided loads of #fruits. I saved 2 of the largest fruits for sowing this year's plants - gave several seeds away too.

That was fast!

My son gave me a couple of ground cherry plants. Their roots were not much developed and I feared they wouldn't survive the transplant, but they're flowering!

Found a #GroundCherry plant that had self seeded & was growing out of a crevice in our front yard. Dug out & potted up this volunteer food plant 👩‍🌾

We grew Ground Cherries for the first time this year and they've quickly become my favourite thing in the garden. Always a few on the ground for a snack when I'm passing by.

TIL that if you let a #tomatillo get fully ripe (i.e. wait until it gets yellow) it tastes a lot like a #groundcherry - not as sweet but with that same subtle, creamy, melon-like flavor.

Put another way, I learned that white Americans are taught to use tomatillos WAY before they're properly ripe & so I'm guessing we have a totally mistaken idea of what tomatillo dishes are supposed to taste like.
