Product Description

Solanum ferox, also known as the Hairy-fruited Nightshade, is a unique tropical plant recognized for its fuzzy, yellowish-orange fruits and thorny stems. Native to Southeast Asia, this shrubby plant has large, lobed leaves covered in fine hairs and prominent spines. The small, star-shaped purple flowers give way to rounded, hairy fruits that gradually ripen to a vibrant orange color. While the fruits are edible when fully ripe, they are often grown for their decorative appeal. Solanum ferox stands out for its thorny texture and striking fruit, making it a conversation starter in any garden.
