| While tidying up the sunroom , I happened to discover ….I have ripe Cape gooseberries or Physalis peruviana ! |
 |
| There were lots of blooms when I brought my two plants in for the winter. I didn't expect they would come to much. But I did give them plenty of water…. just in case . |
 |
| Every now and again I give the flowers a little squeeze. The fruit seemed not to be getting any bigger. But, recently they have been turning yellow . and this morning a few had dropped . That's when I found nice ripe cherries….and very sweet too ! |
Are those what are referred to as ground cherries? My great-grandmother used to make delectable ground cherry preserves.
