For info purposes this is what the growing info is...
Start in modules from Feb-April,plant out when danger of frost has gone, intomanure ground in full sun.
Allow 1mtr spacing alll round per plant, stake as necessary, can be grown in polytunnel/greenhouse, let insects in to pollinate.
You need at least 2 plants to set fruit as they are not self-compatible.
This variety - Verde Pueblo - has a very mild skin and nice crisp flesh, so you can use it in salads, salsas, or cooked.
Tomatillos will keep well for several weeks if they are picked carefully on a dry day and stored in their papery husks. This is very useful at the end of the season as with care you can be eating fresh tomatillos well into the winter.
there ya go

Sowed mine last night after having some lovely enchiladas at the weekend made with a tomatillo salsa - dead easy, stew the washed tomatillos (husks removed but skins left on), puree with lots of chillis, corriander leaves and chopped onion. Fry the purreed mix for 10 mins. Fill the faihitas (how do you spell that?) with what ever you want and some of the salsa. Roll up, cover all the filled fahitas with the remaining salsa, add grated cheese and shove in the oven for 20 mins on a reasonably high temp. Eat and really enjoy with sour cream and salad. Really yummy and as I found another bag of tomatillos I'd forgotten about in the freezer I'm a happy bunny!
Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.
Which one are you and is it how you want to be?Comment

No, what made you think they did? They do however get a bit big, I usually plant mine about 3+' apart although it does depend a bit on how much space I have in a given year.Originally posted by sez View Post

Maybe I was getting confused
I just saw this bit "Allow 1mtr spacing alll round per plant".
Undecided whether to plant mine or not (i already have seeds), as either way they sound like big space intensive plants for my small garden!Comment

I also changed my mind about growing them as I couldn`t justify the space.
On Saturday kitchen on the 20th Anna Henson did a recipe with tomatilloes :-
Chermoula-baked sea bass with quinoa, tomatillo and preserved lemon salad, spiced toasted seeds and tahini cream, yes it was the most complicated recipe I`ve ever seen on that show, but they did have a discussion about tomatilloes which I found interesting as I`d never ever seen them. (not even in Waitrose, Frias)Comment
