I grew Aunt Molly's Ground Cherry -- three plants. They yielded enough for a lot of snacking, plus five jars of jam (had to freeze the fruit until I had enough for a batch). Relative to tomato plants, ground cherries might not offer the most bang for your buck, since the fruit are so small, but I found them to be interesting, velvety-textured, beautiful plants! I'll definitely grow them again in coming years.
