Aunt Molly's Ground Cherry has an intriguing history dating back centuries.  This unique cherry boasts a journey through time, cherished for its rich heritage and distinctive taste.  Naturally high in pectin, they make great preserves and pies as well. 

Here's the Heritage Story:

 Originally from high-altitude, tropical South America and is closely related to the tomatillo, but with a flavor of pineapple, vanilla and occasionally butterscotch. A widely traveled fruit, it was introduced to England and South Africa in the late 18th Century as well as Australia, New Zealand, and various Pacific islands.

Plant Specifications: 

Harvest the fruits when they are fully ripe, which is indicated by their golden-yellow color and a slightly soft texture.

Make sure to plant in nutrient dense soil, especially optimized for growing fruiting plants.  You can purchase our Pura Terra soil specifically curated for fruiting plants to help improve your soil.
