I got an idea and that resulted in, that i bought my first plant; the Japanese lantern.
I think its a really beautiful flower and my idea is, to shoot the same photo in a couple of months then the lantern turn into a "skeleton"
Physalis (du grec phusalis, vessie, en raison de la forme de son calice) est un genre de plantes de la famille des Solanacées. On les appelle couramment Amour en cage, Lanterne japonaise (ou hōzuki au japon)
Propriétés.
Bien qu'elle contienne un peu d'alcaloïdes, cette plante n'est pas toxique. Tout au plus faut-il se méfier des fruits non mûrs qui peuvent occasionner des désagréments intestinaux. Les fruits mûrs (riches en caroténoïdes) sont comestibles et peuvent être utilisés en confitures, compotes et gelées.

I love Physalis. Both to eat and to photograph!
Physalis is characterised by the small orange fruit similar in size, shape and structure to a cherry tomato, but partly or fully enclosed in a large papery husk derived from the calyx.
The berry also goes by the names Golden Strawberry, Chinese Lantern and Cape gooseberry.
Not all Physalis species bear edible fruit. Select species are cultivated for their edible fruit, however; the typical Physalis fruit is like strawberries or pineapple in flavour, with a mild acidity.
Physalis fruit is a good source of vitamin C, beta-carotene, iron, calcium and trace amounts of B vitamins.
These fruits contain 18 kinds of amino acids .
These berries are also abundant in polysaccharides, compounds that may help fortify the immune system.
Thank you for your time and comments, greatly appreciated, M, (*_*)

Thanks to all !
Physalis alkekengi or Chinese Lanterns
Chinese Lantern will produce ornamental, lantern shaped blooms, that hang from slender stems. They resemble the traditional, paper Chinese Lantern in Chinese culture. The lanterns come in a deep orange coloring and are often used in dried bouquets and floral arrangements. They are perfect for arts and crafts as well. Chinese Lantern plants will grow to a mature height of roughly 24 inches tall.
Chinese Lantern is grown as a perennial flowering plant. Perennials will achieve a deep root system in its initial year of growth. The plants will then wilt on the surface, only to later return the following Spring season. On its second year of growth, the plants will produce blooms throughout the warm months of late Spring and summer. Seeds can be collected from the dried pods and additional plants can be established for years to come.
...or perhaps the end.
The orange fruit containing the seeds of the plant, Physalis alkekengi, growing within the skeletal remains of the papery orange cover that once protected the new fruit.

I'm not sure if everybody knows these exotic fruits. They are called Physalis and are small round berries, very sweet and delicious. I bought them for a picture that I'm planning but I decided to post an image of them alone as I think they are so "photogenic"... hahaha
Thanks a lot for all the comments and faves on my stream! Cheers
