The Chinese Lantern, also known as "love in a cage," is a hardy perennial plant that is easy to grow. Its main appeal lies in its orange membranes, which resemble lanterns and surround the small edible berries. These lanterns shine brightly in autumn. Essential in dried bouquets, the fruit, fleshy and juicy, becomes edible when ripe. Although exceptionally rich in vitamins A, B, and C, the acidic fruit is far from having the delicious taste of the Cape gooseberry.
