Tomatillo
The fruit of these plants resemble Chinese Lanterns. The tomato-like fruit grows to about 2" inside a papery husk. Harvest when the tomatillo is just turning yellow. They will be hard. Can be stored for 1 or 2 months in a cool dry place. Use partially or completely cooked in different Mexican sauces. Grow plants as you would tomatoes. Ultimate height will be 4', so provide good support. Very prolific producers.
