Written By Erin France

Related to tomatoes and tomatillos, the ground cherry has a tomato-like fruit surrounded by a husk. The cossack pineapple has a tropical pineapple-type flavor. Great for turning into a syrup for pancakes.

Growing notes:

• Needs 8 + hours of sunlight and lots of compost.

• Ready to harvest when the husk is easily removed.
