Cape Gooseberries

I have overwintered physallis outdoors in the past. I simply pruned them down to a stump, in spring some re-sprouted.

Great fruit, just don't eat them green.

No. They look toally dead, the old stem died back then regrowth occurred early in spring from the stump base. I moved house not long after so don't know how well they survived beyond that.
