We have a lot of plants that are blossoming right now that I assume are Tomatillos. I assume this after seeing some Tomatillo fruit for sale in the grocery store. The only problem is that the blossoms on my plants are light purple and are shaped like a five point star. The center of the blossom is yellow. The leaves look somewhat like an oak leave with pointed ends, the underside of the leaves have a thorn on them.
I've found some pictures of Tomatillo blooms that are exactly the same shape as the flowers on my plants but the pictures all show yellow flowers.
Is this a different variety of the Tomatillo? If so, are they safe to eat?
