Small orange berry with a husk. Kids love it, and it's fun to pick for them. This old-fashioned tomato family member bears 1/2– 3/4" sweet golden berries inside papery husks, resembling small, straw-colored Japanese lanterns. The flavor is quite sweet and a bit wild. Plants are profusely branching, prolific, and drop ripe fruits. Fruits can be eaten raw, dried like raisins, frozen, canned, or made into preserves, cooked pies, and desserts. 
 
Fruit is ripe when its husk is dried on the ground... thus the name ground cherries!
 
Variety will either be Goldie or Aunt Molly.
