Dead easy.

Spend €3 on a physalis plant.

Stick it in the ground.

Wait 5 years, during which time it will have invaded your entire garden (plus those of all of your neighbours..) and virtually every attempt to eradicate it will fail.

Cut the flowers in late summer.

Sell them on the market for €5 a shot.

I did everything apart from the last step……

    LOL!

    I assume that by “See them on the market for €5 a shot” you meant “Sell them on the market for €5 a shot” ?

    See them is what you did. And photograph them too. Lovely. Wouldn’t you want them all over your garden anyway?

    (btw yes you were right about my top photo. Great physiognomist you are)
