That would be extraordinarily large, Allan. Large tomatilloes are about 4
cm. in diameter, most are no more than 3. If you see them in a local
market, buy the largest they have, drop them in your garden and step on
them. They're a little late in germinating, but you'll have more plants
than you will want of whatever size tomatillo you dropped there. Margaret
