Default craig's tomatillos

Craig has tomatillos. But I urge you to try the cherry
something-or-other variety that I got from him last year, and again
this year. Last year this plant grew big & bushy, and produced great
quantities of little tomatillo-type fruits--only they were pale
pinkish-yellow, and tangy-sweet. Boy were they nice in a salad or
straight off the plant. Usually they fall to the ground when ripe, and
that's where you can pick them up. Their paper husks prevent them from
molding quickly (helps if you've got thick leaf mulch to keep them
away from moist ground).

Enjoy!
I also got a good collection of interesting tomatoes, peppers, and
eggplants to try this year. This time, I'm documenting carefully so I
know which are my favorites for next year. I know I love those Sun
Gold cherry tomatoes, Brandywines, and Aunt Ruby greens...

Cheers
Sue

Did you happen to notice if he had tomatillos?
