Physalis lanterns

Japanese Lanterns. Beautiful Picture.

I love these Chrispook, i bought some this year and left it too late to plant and they died, TUT...Next year Definatley...There beautifull, they really do look like paper lanterns...

Aren't these gorgeous for Autumn and great to dry too for winter decoration.

I am trying to grow he chinese lantern and it just started to apper the first leave! very beggining! Yours look gorgeous!

Hope yours do better than mine B_Lourenco...........they were growing lovely last Autumn, but never flowered then disappeared! :o(

I find they are very invasive and spread a lot. They need to be in a place where this is not a problem. They die right down in winter and in Spring when the shoots appear I marvel at how far they have travelled.

Ah....maybe mine haven't resurfaced yet Chris....shall keep on looking........:o)
