Stillman Posted December 15, 2012 This has come up in the back yard not sure what it is, at first I thought some sort of Datura but it has spikes on the stem? Any ideas before I rip it out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 gwalchgwyn Posted January 11, 2013 Solana for sure. Reminds me of the South American types, like Naranjilla (S. quitonense), sans purple veining. We need a Plowman chaneller! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 whitewind Posted February 26, 2013 Solanum capsicoides? More sprawling than upright, has largish red fruit not very fleshy, say the size of a small (not cherry) tomato about 3cm diameter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
