Possible litchi tomato?
« on: January 06, 2020, 01:55:24 PM »
Found this plant growing wild behind the building I work at. After trying to ID it I think it could be litchi tomato. Does this plant look like that to y'all?







Trying to grow it all!

Looks like soda apple to me.  Solanum viarum.

Soda apple definitely grows here in some places. I saw that while looking through solanum family plants while trying to ID this plant. Seems the soda apple has a wider leaf in most pics more like the naranjilla. Never know though I'm not a true expert just a plant geek.
