Chinese Lanterns – Physalis Seeds

Chinese Lanterns – Physalis Seeds are grown for their distinctive bright orange-red lantern-like seed pods that appear after flowering and provide lasting autumn interest in the garden. These attractive hardy perennials create eye-catching displays in sunny borders and are especially valued for cutting and drying in late summer arrangements. The bushy upright plants flower from July to October before forming the decorative lanterns that attract attention well into the season. Growing to around 60cm tall, they are an unusual and rewarding addition to ornamental planting schemes.
