Synonyms: Solanum ferrugineum, Solanum mayanum, Solanum verapazense

Common names: pendejera, turkey berry, devil’s fig, pea eggplant, platebrush, susumber

Seeds don’t germinate reliably. Cuttings root readily.

This is a good root stock for egg plants. Perhaps also for tomatoes and peppers but I haven’t tried it yet.
