Interesting notes about Chinese Lantern Flowers-
Perennial Chinese Lantern flowers are not native to China. Rather, this unique plant originates from southeastern Europe and Japan. Chinese Lanterns get their name from the distinctive color and shape of the papery husk, which resembles a Chinese (or Japanese) Lantern. Chinese Lanterns are poisonous. Yet despite the poisonous nature of the leaves and unripe berries, this plant has have had a variety of medicinal applications. The medicinal applications include anti-inflammatory, expectorant, cough suppressant, fevers, treating malaria, bedwetting, and even promoting early labor!
This novel plant grows up to two feet tall, producing white, 5-petaled flowers in mid-summer. The flowers give way to a light green, lantern-shaped husk with a berry inside. As it matures, the husk turns a bright orange-red color, and the husk turns papery. Chinese Lanterns make great dried flowers and are used in art projects.
