PHYSALIS IN BOUQUETS
These hero flowers are a wonderful addition for autumn bouquets as well as on their own in a vase. We particularly like using them for Halloween.
PHYSALIS FOR WEDDINGS AND EVENTS
Physalis is less commonly used within wedding arrangements but is a beautiful and unique flower to choose for autumnal events. Our contracts team also find them a beautiful stem to use within private homes and hotels for a show-stopping, yet simple look!
PHYSALIS IN HISTORY
The dried fruit of Physalis is called the golden flower and in Unani medicine is used as diuretic, antiseptic, liver corrective and sedative.
Like the tomato, all its parts are poisonous except the ripe fruit.
