Physalis crassifolia, the thick-leaved groundcherry (crass = thick, folia = relates to the leaves) is a neat member of the nightshade family which grows in dry areas throughout the American southwest. Despite being members of Solanaceae, the fruits of Physalis are generally considered edible, and this species is no exception. Its fruit is described as “edible and sweet with pineapple and strawberry flavors” though not being fond of tomatoes, I have been reluctant to try. Each fruit grows wrapped in the papery flower calyx. This plant thrives in desert environments, with this plant seen flowering in a dry year in the Mojave Desert in California.

Posted @withregram • @sacramento.native Back from a break. Just too excited to not post this. I love rare or unusual plants. This is sacred datura (Datura wrightii) that @plantfoundry had for a hot minute. Since we’ll probably be in drought conditions more often than not, I’m moving to more arid loving plants. You can see these all along I-5. The seed pods are spiny balls. All parts of the plant are poisonous and they can get quite large so they needed to be sited carefully. #california #californianative #californianativeplants #californianativegarden #californianativegardener #nativegarden #nativeplants #cnps #californianativeplantsociety https://www.instagram.com/p/ChiB3CvJvpd/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
