Toute dégoulinante de miel...collante et savoureuse. Je l'imagine fort bien, enrobée de chocolat noir.

Dried up physalis with the fruit still inside, highlighting the fine mesh of its leaf structure.
One of the most "Autumn" things there is, to me!
replaced with photoshopped version!

Same laborious process as last one: ideally if had photoshop I would darken right side!
I grow these in the garden because they have huge health benefits, eg one berry has as much vitamin C as a whole lemon, but like potatoes they shouldn't be eaten green. At the moment ill in bed, I'm not a good advert for that statement!
This year was interesting, one of the hottest and driest summers for years. I thought crops originating from hot countries would do well but actually many close down in a drought, some plants don't even flower if you can't give them enough water. Even if you can water them they don't like the heat eg hydrangeas. The physalis produced fruit but not many ripened, the husk remained green. However I brought them inside and some have now ripened, like this one nearest the camera, even though the husk is still green and it looks unripe from the outside.
