Hey Iris! We talked about this one on Facebook :) I'd love to trade for some!! I'd also love the 'Delicata' Squash. Let me know, too, if you have any of the flowers from my WANT wish list..lol. I have quite a few of your wants.. about 10 from first glance... probably more! :P Send me an email if you'd like to trade and I'll send you a nice envy full! :) hugs, Wendy / sassyb

I did the last 2 years and they annoyed me bigtime the only thing 'giant' about them is their height and their thirst they are like overly tall tomatillo plants with miniature fruit and so far not one ripened, they were tiny green, unedable marbles when frost hit and killed them every branch that was not securely fastened to a tall fence bent and broke in any wind worth mentioning the fruit will not continue to ripen after being picked like tomatoes do so for me they were a waste for space, time, water ... if you want to try go ahead, I'm out, I'll try my luck with goji's

Hi. I'm wanting to try to grow ground cherries this year. I'm wondering if anyone might know a local supplier of plants in/near LaPorte Co. as my seedlings have not sprouted and I'm getting doubtful. :) Ann

I'm growing some ground cherries now (raised them from seed, they look great!), and we just planted two plants in a 5 gallon container. I imagine they will be a bit crowded, but regardless I think a 5 gal bucket or pot would be plenty big for a single plant. The ones I just transplanted did not have very extensive roots, even though the plants themselves look to be very healthy and they seem to be fairly mature already. Cape goosberries are probably a little bigger than these ground cherries, but still I imagine 5 gallons would be enough for one plant, perhaps more than it needs, as long as it gets nutrition and water.
