Pineapple (Ground Cherry) Tomatillo Seeds (Organic)

Introducing our pineapple tomatillo seeds, an heirloom variety ideal for home gardeners interested in growing ground cherries or exploring unique fruiting plants. These vining plants produce sweet, tangy fruit encased in a delicate papery husk, often referred to as a husk tomato. Each organic pineapple tomatillo seed grows into a productive plant with golden-yellow fruit perfect for pineapple salsa, desserts, and fresh snacking. For best results, start seeds indoors or sow outdoors after the last spring frost. Once mature, the fruit naturally drops to the ground when fully ripe—similar to other physalis peruviana and ground cherry varieties.
