Chinese Lantern plant / Physalis alkekengi

 We don't pay them much mind until they ripen to a bright orange, but these pale green lanterns were glowing in the morning light last week in Jim and Rojeanne's garden.

(Chinese lanterns are really really invasive and very very easy to estabish from fragments of roots--only plant them in beds that you don't mind being cheerfully invaded.)
