Verde Tomatillo
Physalis ixocarpa
Reseeding
Tender Annual
This green tomatillo is great in salsas or salads. This
variety has diverse gene traits that produce two distinct variations of
plants - one is erect and branching, the other more compact. Both are
equally prolific. Does best when transplanted. Sow seeds in flats indoors
and plant in garden in 6-8 weeks when all danger of frost has passed.
Plant in rows 24-36 inches apart. Does not need trellising. Harvesting
tips. Pick for salsa when the husks turn brown and begin to open. With
additional time, they will become more seedy, but also get sweeter, for
eating raw.
