Product Description
Tomatillo ‘Verde’
Physalis philadelphica
This easy to grow, heat loving edible is an extremely productive addition to the garden. After buttercup-yellow flowers bloom and set fruit, graceful stems carry the most beautiful lantern-like pods. These dangling treasures have a glowing quality and add unique character to arrangements. The prolific fruits can be used for salsa and tangy green sauce as well.
