Happy to post them on to anyone who wants them.

Physalis (sp??) are Chinese lanterns. As far as I know these are ornamental ones not edible. Or I might be wrong...

Both of the commonly grown species produce edible(?) fruits and are grown as decorative plants too.

OK - I have two takers, so I'll split them (I think there's about 50). :0)

Hi, posted yesterday, in placcy bags as I'm out of envelopes.
I don't have any specific advice over growing, but apparently you sow spring or summer and keep at 15 degreen for 3-4 weeks.
