About This Exotic Variety: Purple tomatillos offer a unique twist on the traditional green variety, featuring a sweeter flavor with hints of citrus, making them a delightful choice for culinary adventurers looking to spice up their salsas and sauces. Growth Habits: These plants can sprawl or grow upright with support, reaching up to 2 feet in height and width. They thrive in well-drained soil with a pH between 6.5 to 7.0, requiring full sun for at least 6 hours daily. Cultural Significance: Originally cultivated in Central America, purple tomatillos carry a history as rich as their color, used since pre-Columbian times, making them a cultural staple in Mexican and Central American cuisine. Care and Harvest: Plant them after the last frost, space them about 2 feet apart, and expect to harvest when the husk turns tan and the fruit fills it, typically from midsummer into fall. Watch out for the need for cross-pollination; plant at least two to ensure fruit set. Quality: All seeds packaged by Seed Needs are intended for the current and the following growing seasons.
