Are you sure? I could have sworn I have seen a plant similar to this one. I thought they were poppy seeds or something, but alas...

I've seen these seed pods too. No idea what they are though.

I often grow them in one of our greenhouses.

You grow them? Aren't they weeds? That shit grows in my front yard and kills other plants if I don't go after it all the time. Damn annoying.

The non fruiting varieties are a weed. The cape gooseberry varieties make a great jelly.

Yeah, I don't think we get that variety here.
