PHYSALIS FRANCHETI. (JAPANESE GIANT WINTER CHERRY.). This attractive plant recently introduced from Japan, has been widely advertised as the Chinese Lantern Plant, so called from its fancied resem- blance to a miniature Chinese lantern. When cov- ered with its bright fruit it certainly is a very strik- ing and beautiful plant. It grows about 18 inches high and produces in abundance bright red cherry- like fruits, which are enclosed in an enormous bal- loon-like semi-transparent calyx 3 inches long and from 6 to 7 inches in circumference that is a bright orange scarlet when mature. They hold their color for a long time after being cut and can be used to advantage for winter decorations in bouquets of dried grasses, etc. 10c each; 3 for 25c.
