Hi everyone,
I recieved a cutting of this plant from a friend. Does anyone know what it is? I think it is more of an indoor plant here in Pennsylvania, as our cold winters would surely kill it outdoors The plant gets red berries on it.....any help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks to all in advance,

Hi Kratz,
That looks like Solanum pseudocapsicum ("Jerusalem Cherry"),
make sure no one at your house decides to sample it [Linked Image] it's toxic . wink
