Native to South America, the Cape Gooseberry Golden Berry (Physalis peruviana) is renowned for its exotic and vibrant orange fruits. Each berry is encased in a delicate, lantern-like paper husk which not only protects the fruit from pests but also adds a decorative touch to garnishes.

Physalis fruits are versatile in the kitchen, adding a touch of the exotic to sweet dishes, desserts, and even savoury recipes. The berries grow to around 2-3cm in diameter and offer a unique, sweet-tart flavour that is both refreshing and tantalising.

Our Cape Gooseberry produce plants that only grow to 1 metre (3 feet) high, making them suitable for both garden beds and large containers. They thrive in full sun and are easy to grow for gardeners of all experience levels.
