Plant of the Day
Wednesday 4 October 2023
In autumn Physalis alkekengi var. franchetii (Chinese lantern) produce orange-scarlet berries enclosed by papery, red lanterns. The plants thrive in a well-drained soil, they can be difficult to establish but can also be considered invasive. A new cultivar I recently saw at a plant sale was Physalis alkekengi var. franchetii ‘Monstrosum’ with fruits that have been transformed into bizarre, contorted orange chilli-like structures.
