Purple de Milpa - Physali

Ref : P4901 - Physalis philadelphica
Bag of 40 seeds

This ancient variety produces purple fruit with a very pronounced flavor. The main ingredient in Mexico's famous Salsa Verde, they give cooked dishes a slightly tangy, piquant taste.

Unripe fruits, like other parts of the plant, contain the toxic alkaloid solanine. However, tomatillos are mostly eaten green, raw or cooked, in Mexico.
