Solanum hispidum. Apparently the common name is devils fig tree.useful for grafting tomato and eggplant...at the same time if one was so inclined... and possibly other solanaceous plants, you can only try!
Thanks bud, I have had a look at a few sites and this looks like the one. Thanks for your help

Thanks for the info Torsten. I will post a pic when it fruits, which will probably be this time next year.

It is a very fast grower and does grow up like a tree. I have seen fruit on my friends tree and it has green berrys after it flowers, im not sure if they turn red in time as I only seen them green. I suspect that one of his trees is male and one is female. Because only one flowers and has fruit and the other one has clones sprouting from the roots. Its a very interesting plant. Thanks for the ID

Thanks Torsten. The guy I got it off said his friend got it from perth, its a very interesting plant for grafting.

Got this plant off a friend not sure what it is, it is used for grafting vegies. It has thorns all over the leaves and main stem. Any ideas?

How long usually from little hairy bits to flowers on a standard t.pach?Might take a few weeks or even a month or longer, hair is the sign that its gonna flower sometime soon. They will grow some stalks out of the hair and have some nice big flowers. Post some pics when it does flower if you can.

Going off the topic a bit. But heres my 2 cents. The only real winners in wars are the people who fund it and weapons contractors / markers. War develops technologies and give goverments an excuse to spend all the countrys money on defence and weapons. I read somewhere that america spend a few trillion dollars on defence ever year with the numbers rising. Goverments arm themselves against it citizens! Wars are planned so people can profit from them. I wouldnt fight in any bullshit war. You can never believe what you hear from the media and other tyrants that profit off war, Say NO to war and just defend your self when needed be.

i want to be buried in cloth and have a tree planted over my bodySame with me I would like my remains to goto good use for our mother earth, if I can fertilise some plants or feed some animals with my remains I am not to fussed I will be dead anyway and will have left my physical body. I believe that you never die we just change to a different energy form/ life form. It would be great to be a part of everything yet be nothing a certain oness with the universe.

Thanks Zelly!
One day I will hopefully have a collection like yours Zelly.

I think everyone should show respect to each other but this is not always common amongst most people. Respect is earnt and given when you get respect. If everyone did respect each other we would be living in a perfect world.

Thanks everyone for the ID's

Thanks for all the info guys and Zelly your collections is great thanks for sharing the great pics. I have a few more photos I will add to this thread later tonight just wanna see what everyone thinks of my buddys 7 year old lophs that has 3 pups popin out of it. I have heard so may different explainations from many different people about how to know what is just a regular loph and what is a caes. Some people have told me that a regular williamsii will pup sooner if it is a cutting rather than a seed grown one. It can all be a bit confusing sometimes

I got monday off so Im sweet!
-
Thanks heaps for the pics and info Zelly nice collection. Great pics of some great plants How old is the caes in the 20 cm pot? Are you in Australia Zelly?
EDIT: Wanted to ask zelly if he is in oz
