Cossak Pineapple Ground Cherry
Cossak Pineapple is an heirloom variety of ground cherry that produces sweet, golden fruit with a unique, pineapple-like flavor. While we're often suspicious of varieties that claim to taste like exotic fruit, this one really does deserve its name. Our 3-year-old asked if it was some sort of "yummy grape" and our daughter said it was the best thing we've ever grown, both of which are pretty high marks from children. The flavor seems to vary depending on the weather conditions and ripeness of the fruit, but they are always sweet, often with a delicious bit of tartness, and are sometimes just spot on for a pineapple. A winner for sure in our book. Plants grow 2 to 3 feet tall and have a bit of a sprawling habit, so give them room. Produces consistently from summer until frost. Well-suited for baking and preserves. Approximately 70 days from transplant. Each packet contains a minimum of 50 seeds.
