Interesting, David. The curl seems to mean something, because some plants are given it and others aren't. I first thought it meant that is was a twig cut from a tree, but the image above shows what looks like a twig with and another without the curl....
They both have the "curl". One is just more elaborate than the other. The point on the one on the right is an abbreviated curl, the other is a flourished curl, just like capital letters. As you noticed when we were both composing our messages, it represents a twig rather than a full plant.
In fact, if you look closely, you'll see another difference between them, notice the extra line at the base of the first plant? I happen to know that Physalis has a hollow stem, so it's quite possible that the extra line represents the hollow stem.
