Molly

Season Overview

Description

'Molly' grows only about 40 cm high and is slightly smaller than other physalis varieties. Because of its low growth height, Molly is also suitable for balconies, terraces and small gardens. But in the first place its extravagant taste differs from other varieties: fruity tangy, passion fruit-like aroma.

Growing tips

Seeds only thinly covered with soil, germination in 8-14 days at 25°C. Keep soil loose, mulching recommended. When ripe, the pod becomes dry and the whole fruit falls to the ground, which can then be collected.
