FREE: Unusual!! Ground Cherry Seeds 100+

The listing, Unusual!! Ground Cherry Seeds 100+ has ended.

Some of you may remember this fruit from many years ago when it was widely collected in the wild and used in cooking or just snacking!
Each ground cherry contains many seeds, you get fifteen of the fruits so at least a hundred tiny seeds! You'll only need a few of the seeds to get started but you may want to give some away to friends...

Some of the photos are mine, some taken off the internet.
FROM THE INTERNET: "How to grow ground cherries:
They are easy, easy, easy. Plant a small plant in a sunny spot. Give it plenty of room. In Wisconsin, fruits start to ripen in late July, and continue until frost. I suspect ground cherries will be like dill. You only need to plant it once. Next year volunteers will sprout all over the garden. Right now that sounds appealing to me. I will let you know if I change my mind next year.
HOW TO HARVEST:
Ripe ground cherries fall off the plant and land on the ground. Hence the name. The papery husk keeps it clean. Simply pick up the yellow ripe fruit. These “cherries” are easy to reach, so this could be a good job for short people.
At first, we did this about every three days. Now we harvest every day.
First we made a simple, right from the garden salsa. Then we added them to mixed fruit salad. Now we keep them in a bowl on the counter and eat them out of hand. We hope to harvest enough for jam or chutney soon."

You will receive over 15 ground cherries. Just mash, dry, and get seeds out. (some of them you'll receive may already be mashed and mostly dried. Dry the seeds thoroughly, store in cool dry place until spring. Plant in early spring when danger of frost is past or plant inside in pots and move outside later. Mine had ripe fruit by July even with our drought, we're in zone 6/7.
