Aunt Molly's Ground Cherry is a Polish heirloom that produces abundant yields of 1/2" to 3/4" wide fruits encased in a thin, papery husk. Tomato cages can help support the plants that grow 2 feet tall by several feet wide.
Aunt Molly's ground cherries have a sweet, tangy, citrus flavor with a hint of vanilla, but some describe the flavor as a combination of pineapple and brown sugar. Either way, they are uniquely delicious!
The fruits are an exciting indulgence of individually wrapped, bite-sized little garden candies. They make delicious jams and pies due to the high pectic content or use them fresh in salads, smoothies, and ice cream.
Starter will be in a 4" reusable nursery pot.
