Thompson & Morgan Physalis Chinese Lantern Bare Root 3 Pack

Brighten your garden with vibrant orange lanterns and edible berries as Thompson & Morgan Physalis Chinese Lantern Bare Root 3 Pack brings a unique splash of colour from late summer, offering both ornamental charm and tasty treats. Compact and fully hardy, these perennial bare roots thrive in pots or borders, regrowing each year and providing fascinating winter interest when the lanterns skeletonise. Easy to grow in moist, fertile soil and suitable for sun or semi shade, they’ll deliver lasting beauty and flavour with minimal effort. How to grow: Pot up plants and grow them on in frost free conditions until all risk of frost has passed. When plants are well grown, gradually acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over seven to 10 days before transplanting into borders and containers. The herbaceous perennials in this collection can be grown in any moist, fertile soil, in sun or semi shade. Work some compost or general fertiliser into the top 20cm of the soil prior to planting. Grow Chinese lantern plants in any moist, well drained soil, in full sun or semi shade. Feed and water groundcherry plants regularly until plants are fully established. After flowering leave the stems intact to allow the edible fruits to develop.
