It can be hard to save seeds from these because you’ll want to eat every fruit! Preserved by the late Katie Hoffman Slonaker (1903-1983) in New Hanover, Pennsylvania, until becoming a part of the Roughwood Seed Collection; this variety is likely to become popular once again. We think it tastes better than common cultivars. At a tasting held by the American Institute of Wine and Food, it beat all other ground cherries tested!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing Tips: \u003c\/strong\u003eStart transplants indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost.
