Aunt Molly's Ground Cherry is an 1837 Polish Heirloom. Smooth, marble-sized fruits are indigenous to the high altitudes of South America, eventually finding their way to Europe in the 18th century. Aunt Molly's Ground Cherry has a sweet, tangy, citrus flavor ending with a hint of vanilla- plus after an employee taste test.  Julie claimed that it tasted like a pina colada. Abundant harvests of golden fruit are enclosed in papery husks turning green to yellow/brown, dropping to the ground when ripe, and continuing to sweeten while waiting to be harvested. Sweet or savory uses: add these to salads, jams, smoothies, preserves, pies, and even dry like raisins. When stored with the husk on Aunt Molly's Ground Cherry can last a month. Grows to 2 feet high by 4 feet wide.

PLANTING

Physalis pruinosa

Germination: 10-25 days

Germination Temperature: Optimum soil temperatures 75-85ºF. Cooler soil temperatures increase germination time.

Seed Sowing Depth: ¼” deep

Starting Indoors: 6-8 weeks before the last frost. Sow in flats/cells/pots. Provide 75-85ºF soil temperatures. Fertilize the seedlings every 7-10 days with a liquid or water-soluble fertilizer (diluted to ¼ of the suggested measurement). Transplant seedlings 24-48” apart after the last frost.

Sowing Outdoors: Not recommended, especially in northern areas

How much does a packet plant: 20-25 foot single row  

Harvest: The fruits must be fully ripe to eat. Fruits are golden in color, covered in a papery husk and will fall to the ground when they are ripe. They have a long shelf life, a month or more after harvest when the husks are left on.

Tips: Aunt Molly's Ground Cherry should be planted in fertile soil, and amended with compost if needed. It helps to use row cover early in the season, giving the plants extra warmth, especially in the north. Side dress when flowers begin to form. Place some type of cloth under the plants for an easier harvest.

Reliable sharps container.
Solid, reliable sharps container for home use. The lid locks securely and gives peace of mind, especially with kids around. It’s sturdy, holds a good amount, and doesn’t take up much space. Exactly what I needed, simple and safe.

Size matters
Have a nice container that can holds a lot but not so tall and skinny like most to the point that their top heavy and tip over. I feel like this one has the balance between being large without taking a too much space and also holding a lot

Large capacity, Sturdy construction
Size: 2 Gallon, Unit Count: 1.0
Very large capacity. Strong plastic construction. I use an auto injector once a week. This container will probably last me a year, yet it will easily fit in the sharps. Disposal receptacle in town.
