Njoynit,
Mine are engulfing the
front of my back 40!!!
They are kind of PROLIFIC
once you get them,
plant them with care,
because they can take over!!!

njoynit,
My chinese lanterns are orange....
Are there other colors???
I've only know orange ones...
my grannies were orange too!!!

My grannie used to dry them upside down
in her back room...tied with a string.

How do you dry them.???/
I just pull, tie and hang!
