Cape Gooseberry SEEDS – Heirloom & Untreated – Physallis peruvian

The Cape Gooseberry is a short-living perennial bush that produces sweet and juicy round yellow berries that are protected by a papery husk. The berries are a good source of vitamins A and C, and also contain calcium, riboflavin, iron, phosphorus, and potassium. It is an easy-to-grow plant. You can expect the first harvest only a few months after planting. Very easy to grow from a seed.

The price is for 10 seeds.

Planting and growing tips: Sprinkle a few seeds in a pot, cover slightly with fine soil, and keep moist in a protected place with filtered light. Replant into individual pots and later on to its final position. Cape Gooseberry is an easy-to-grow plant, that loves the sun in the temperature climate and half-shade to shade position in subtropics and tropics. The better the soil, the quicker and better it will grow. It doesn’t like to sit in water so a well-drained position is best. All our edibles grow happily and quickly in slightly raised garden beds.

Additional notes:

• The price is for ten seeds, coming from my plant, naturally grown in my permaculture food forest. Not to WA TAS.
• Do your own research before trying any new foods. Please also note our disclaimer in the footer of this page.
