This area of my property is vacant, and I have no plans or ideas on what to plant. However, it is fantastic that this place is organically populated by Solanum Trilobatum Plant. They now have beautiful purple blossoms that I can see from afar. For its common name, Solanum Trilobatum is also known as Red Pea Eggplant. It is a perennial herb with thorns underneath the leaves and even on the fruit stalks. The shrub produces beautiful purple-violet flowers. Fruits are small and globose, with numerous tiny seeds that are light green in color and turn red when ripe. All parts of the plant are known to have medicinal properties and have traditionally been used to treat a variety of ailments such as cough, asthma, fatigue, respiratory illness, and skin diseases.
