I never knew what they were called we just ate them with pleasure. They grew wild all across the fields. After becoming an adult I often wondered what the berries were called. I also, longed to have that taste again but never knew how to find out what they were called until I saw Dr.Oz Show. He was talking about how to blast Belly fat and listed Golden Berries as one of the ways to do it. I looked up Golden Berry and the plant and lo and behold it was one and the same berries I ate as a child. I ordered dried berries to eat and seeds to plant this Spring 2013.<br />M.

In a strange twist of events... I misplaced the Ground Cherry seeds you gave me. I eventually found them in with the corks, but meanwhile I had already bought the Goldenberry seeds at Bright Ideas. I was looking for something different to plant, and the owner recommended the Goldenberry seeds. I didn't realize Ground Cherry and Goldenberry where pretty much the same. It's seems I was destined to grow these this year no matter what.Allyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07430849998788960134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998038438265857147.post-60220022783957254202012-07-30T15:19:30.956-05:002012-07-30T15:19:30.956-05:00I grew ground cherries last year that looked a lot...I grew ground cherries last year that looked a lot like these, but the plant was much lower and hugged the ground - hince the name I guess.<br />I loved them.

So far I would say that this plant really seems to like our Texas climate. After the initial harvest, things slowed down a bit, but more fruit is forming for a second harvest. I'm amazed that it can set fruit in this heat, but maybe it set during the rainy period earlier in the month.Allyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07430849998788960134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998038438265857147.post-63646789013525013052012-07-28T14:31:41.729-05:002012-07-28T14:31:41.729-05:00I guess I should mention that I also tried a red f...I guess I should mention that I also tried a red foot long bean that I thought would be real cool.

I think they must have been a disappointment to me at the time. Now I see them used only as decoration on desserts. They may have been also have been a different variety as they were quite orange when ripe. Maybe I will give them a try next year. My tastes may have changed.Rock rose https://www.blogger.com/profile/00348711150803587369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7998038438265857147.post-87570127323452850502012-07-26T12:05:10.037-05:002012-07-26T12:05:10.037-05:00I don't think I've ever heard of these.
