  • Question

    Thankyou very much. I found out that my plant name is Solanum xanti hoffmannii or Hoffmann's Nightshade. It thrives in zone 9&10.

    Answer

    Dear Ngaton, good morning. I'm glad you found an answer. I'm familiar (in passing) with Solanum xanti, but the corolla coloration of your plant (and the indument--type and density of hairs) did not seem to match. I'm glad you have a name for your mystery. Best wishes.
