Dear friends

Please refer to earlier discussion on this genus. The plants referred to P. minima may belong to P. angulata or P. lagascae (or even P. pruinose). This one should be Physalis angulata. Kindly refer to the useful paper:

The myth of "minima" and "maxima", the species of Physalis in Indian Subcontinent by V S Raju, C S Reddy and K G Rajarao, published in Acta Phytotaxonomica Sinica, 45 (2): 239–245(2007). it is also available online:
