      Thanks Nick but it's not Physalis. :)

      Thank you Silver Surfer, you've hit the nail on the head. :thumbsup:

        @Nikolaos it is reminiscent of physalis but physalis doesn't have a flower coming out of the pod and the the pod has many more sides to it so they don't indent very much. We have a 30ft bed of them but can't get outside at the moment to count how many sides it has. :noidea:
