Plants grow to 3-4 feet. Very small (¾") purple-tinged fruits borne on 3-4' tall plants. Fruit typically does not burst through husk when ripe. Sharp flavor preferred by some cooks over other tomatillos.

Beautiful purple color

We grew these for the first time in 2022. They were good producers! They have a nice flavor and Beautiful purple color. We have grown purple tomatillos but usually the husk on them is purple not the fruit. If you haven't tried them i would suggest you do. FYI, you really need 2 tomatillo plants to get a good harvest.
