How do ground cherries grow and what are the key factors that contribute to their successful cultivation?

Ground cherries grow on low, sprawling plants that produce small, lantern-shaped fruits enclosed in papery husks. Key factors for successful cultivation include well-drained soil, full sun exposure, regular watering, and proper spacing to allow for good air circulation. Additionally, ground cherries benefit from mulching to retain moisture and prevent weeds, as well as regular fertilization to promote healthy growth and fruit production.
