Purple Tomatillo Seeds – Heirloom Mexican Husk Tomato for Salsas & Sauces

Purple Tomatillo Seeds from Survival Garden Seeds grow an heirloom variety of Physalis ixocarpa prized for its rich color, vigorous growth, and distinctive flavor. Often called a Mexican husk tomato, this plant produces purple fruits enclosed in papery husks that peel back as the tomatillos mature. Slightly sweeter than green tomatillos yet still tangy, purple tomatillos add depth, color, and complexity to salsas, sauces, and traditional Mexican dishes. Plants perform well in garden beds, large containers, and controlled growing environments.

How to Use / How to Grow:
Start purple tomatillo seeds indoors or sow outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Plant in full sun with well-drained soil and consistent watering. Space plants to allow for their vigorous growth. Tomatillos generally produce best when grown near another tomatillo plant for pollination. Harvest fruits when husks fill out and begin to split for the best flavor.
