Columbian Giant Cape Gooseberry (organic)
$11.00
Physalis peruviana- “Columbian Giant”
This variety comes from the commercial producers of large cape gooseberries in Columbia. Usually 2x larger than the standard varieties.
This variety has a slightly smaller berry but is uniquely perfumed with a hint of strawberry taste. This variety was selected by Food Forest Fruit Growers in Watsonville and we are excited to offer it you!
It is indigenous to South America, but has been cultivated in England since the late 18th century and in South Africa in the region of the Cape of Good Hope since at least the start of the 19th century.
Small shrub with small orange fruit similar in size and shape to the common tomato, with a papery husk. It can be grown as an annual or perennial based on your location. Plants are usually small, only 1-3ft in height.
USDA Certified Organic
Pot Size: 4 inch
Plant Size: 9in+
USDA Hardiness: 9-11 (though some say zone 8, we grow it in 9b without protection)
