Product Description

Solanum laciniatum, commonly known as the Kangaroo Apple, is a fast-growing shrub native to Australia and New Zealand. It features deeply lobed, dark green leaves that give it a striking, fern-like appearance. In summer, it produces clusters of star-shaped, purple-blue flowers with bright yellow stamens, followed by large, egg-shaped orange or yellow fruits. While the unripe fruits are toxic, they are edible when fully ripe. Solanum laciniatum is admired for its ornamental foliage and colorful fruits, making it a standout choice for gardeners seeking a tropical, exotic aesthetic.
