Better known as 'Chinese Lantern', Physalis alkekengi produces tiny, creamy-white flowers in midsummer above oval green foliage. These inconspicuous flowers later develop into red, papery 'lanterns' that contain edible berries. This vibrant autumn display brings a bright splash of colour to fading perennial borders. The stems can be cut to create wonderful decorative flower arrangements. If left on the plant the calyces will slowly skeletonise, adding ornate winter interest to your garden. Height: 75cm (30"). Spread: 90cm (36").
